Talking 1996 ALEMBIC - MARK KING SIGNATURE DELUXE !!

Sign in to disble this ad
OK, well our good friend GENSTORMBRINGER wisely told me one day, "We are not the Egyptians. If it's something you've always wanted, then get it. Enjoy it. We can't take it with us so do it now while you can." We were specifically talking about my apprehension about buying this bass with my life savings. I felt it was worth the risk, so I did it. I can now say that I have owned a Mark King Alembic !! It is just not for me, though. I have now owned an Epic, a Spoiler, a Stanley Clarke Signature Deluxe, and now a Mark King Signature Deluxe. It is time for another fellow to own this bass...
- 1996 Alembic Mark King Signature Deluxe
- $13,500 new
- 34" scale neck, 24 frets
- Front red LED's
- Cocobolo front & back, maple neck, purple heart stringers, ebony fretboard, all Alembic hardware, Signature electronics, D.I. out, vol/blend/Q switch x 2/Low Pass filter x 2
- Original fit hardshell case
- MINT condition. Not a single blemish.
- If I am forgetting to mention anything, I'm sure it will be posted by one of you.

- I am selling it for $4500 shipped in the USA.

No, it has the front LED's, but they light up each oval inlay enough that you can user them as markers just fine. They look really great. Thanks.

Nice one. The tail looks like the Concorde. I really like the wood color.

Price lowered to $4500 shipped in the USA. It cost $500 dollars to have it shipped to me from the Netherlands, so I'm taking a big hit.
