***SOLD!***SOLD!***SOLD!***SOLD!***SOLD!***SOLD!** *SOLD!***SOLD!***
'90 Alembic Persuader, flamed koa top, 3-piece maple neck thru, 34" scale, mahogany body wings, Koa overlays on the front and back of the headstock, Alembic soapbars, with vol-vol- filter electronics set up, ebony fingerboard with alembic oval inlays, and brass "bird" tail piece. The bass is in excellent condition, with only a few tiny bumps keeping it from mint condition. the front pick up sits about 1" away from the fingerboard so there's plenty of room for slapping and popping (as compared to the 1/4" some Alembics have) The frets are in excellent shape showing very little wear, and the only issue with the bass is a small amount of fingerboard contraction causing the fret ends to stick out a bit, but I'll have that fixed before it ships out to its new home. The bass comes in an alembic zero-g type case that is beat up but has protected the bass very well across it's life. The pic is crappy, but one of these days I'll get my good digital camera back from my wife. Asking $1550 shipped in the lower 48. No trades unless you have a Baldor or stewmac buffing lathe

ps nice bass! | Same or similar body style, but different electronics. This one has a 90Pxxxx serial number, the P being for persuader. You gotta trust me on this stuff, my alembic tatoo gives me instant alembic cred.
