SOLD!
Up for sale is my '97 Alembic Orion.
I'm just not using it and I really need cash.
I paid $1300.00 for it about a year ago
A similar Orion just sold on Ebay last night for $1425.00 + $90.00 Shipping.
Now up on Ebay, I'd prefer to sell it here, so if you're interested let me know.

All electronics function, although the jack may need tightened a touch.

Note wear to the left of the string above the bridge pup.
Various scratches on the back and sides.
I tried to get all of the nicks and scratches in the pics but the ones on the neck just wouldn't show up.
I can try to take more pictures upon request.

That said I will work with anyone to provide full disclosure of the product's condition.
