1992 Alembic Essence 4 in Ruby Red finish. A few scuffs on the body, a wear spot on the neck, and the brass hardware has aging, but nothing major. The dual truss rod works perfect.
34" scale. 1.625 width at nut. Weight is 9 on a bathroom scale.
The neck shape is very much like a precision
Tone, Master Vol, and PU blend with upgraded electronics; Q switch and bass/treble boost and cut; makes a huge difference from the stock Essence electronics.
The fingerboard is a deep ebony in excellent shape, and has been cleaned with lemon essential oil as Alembic suggests. The flame maple tops shows through very nicely. Currently strung with Alembic lights.
Comes with a falling apart protec case but for shipping it works well.
$1800 shipped to US48 only, extra for HI, AK.
First two clips using NYXL light gauge,
Alembic strings
