Glad to be part of the Family
« on: August 05, 2009, 09:49:24 AM »
Hi,   My name is David Dickson. I live in the best Music town in the world Memphis, TN. I just purchased my first Alembic from member Toby. A very beautiful Elan. I would like to thank Toby for all his help and input on this Bass. I am honored to be a part of the Alembic family. I am looking forwarding to laying down some really cool grooves on this awesome bass. Thanks Toby for a smooth transaction.

David,
IMO one of the nicest Elan's I've ever seen, absolutely beautiful.  Nice lams, upgraded electronics and a beautiful top.  
Enjoy it for many years to come.
Play it Healthy!

Very nice BTC top. Is that an ebony lam in the neck? Please let us see the headstock also.
Congratulations on the sweet find and welcome to the club.

David's been great to work with on this transaction- Selling this bass was difficult, but it makes it easier knowing it's going to someone who's going to look after it and who will love playing it.  
 
Enjoy and welcome aboard David!
