Recently purchased this on Reverb. It is a nice bass, but I need to sell this to finance my most recent spontaneous by (GAS). This bass is in good condition, sounds and plays great. It is 40+ years old, so it does have some battle wear, but nothing that impacts sound or playability.
For the uninitiated, this bass is a great and affordable first step into the wild and mystical world of Alembic. If Middle Earth was a bass, it would be this one.
1983 Alembic Spoiler
Body: solid Koa
Neck: 3-piece Maple
Scale: 32" Medium
Fingerboard: Ebony
Inlays: Pearloid (plastic) ovals
Pickups: AXY4
Controls: volume, filter, Q-switch, pickup selector switch, mono output
Originally made for: Guitar Center, Santa Ana, CA
Birthday: March 22, 1983
Purchase includes OHSC, extra backplate screws, extra pickup screws, and two hex drivers for control knobs.
Professional setup.

I am fielding reasonable offers.

Thanks, all-
