Details

Up for sale is a 1990s Aria Pro II with 2AXY/AE-1 Alembic pickups and active electronics. This was a joint venture between the two companies from 1988-1994. This was a factory option, not a modification. I'm selling because it sounds exactly like my Alembic Essence, and I'm trying to thin the herd. Ebony finger board, maple and walnut neck, ash wings (sen wood - Japanese ash). Adjustable brass nut. 9 lbs (approximate)

Controls are volume, volume, filter. Plays and sounds great (like I said, just like my Alembic for less money). High gloss finish. It was hard to keep my reflection out of the photos. Overall the bass looks and sounds amazing.

The usual buckle rash on the back (see photos). One ding on the headstock and some rash on the bottom near the input jack (again, see photos). The finish on the tuners is starting to fade.

Please let me know if you have an questions. I can also take more photos if there's something specific you want to see. You'll be happy with this one, it's a great bass.

$1250 shipped to the lower 48. The bass will ship in a brand new hybrid case. (the case has been for sale here on TB, but since it hasn't sold yet, I will ship this bass in it. It fits perfect)

So cool, I've always wanted to hear one of these.

Did it have a ramp at some point? Just curious about the three holes between the pickups.

I'm assuming it had a ramp at some point. The three holes near the pickups were there when I got it. As far as how it sounds...it sounds like an Alembic
