Hello from SoCal
« on: September 02, 2008, 01:34:56 PM »
Hi there,  I've been dreaming of purchasing an Alembic bass since I started playing 17 years ago.  Just last week, I finally ordered one.  I've heard so many sounds in my head as a bass player.  Many times, it leads back to an Alembic.  I'll be getting a Rogue style body 6-string, fretless.   Both Mica and Susan have been so helpful and informative in making a decision as to getting my thoughts out as far as what I want.   From my first conversation, I know I'm not just paying for an instrument.  Thanks for reading - Mike

  • Are 3 Alembics enough? NO!

Hello Mike and welcome,
The waiting will be tough, but the reward will be worth it! Genius in wood and wire takes time...

Thanks for all your hospitality thus far.  Looking forward to joining in the discussion. I've always felt bass players have a great sense of community.  It's constantly proven to me over and over.  - Mike
