Whoa!

Yeah... alembic.... funky body-shape.. devine bridge, superior pickups & eq.... but the cheap-ass knobs ruin the picture..

 

one of my favorite combinations of all time, alembic custom series basses and coco bolo.

 

I've always been impressed with the way Alembic basses look, but I've never liked the way they play.

To each their own and all that.

 

what is there to not like about the way alembics play?

 

Just goes to show you that glue really DOES sound good.

 

W O N D E R F U L ! ! ! !

 

Is it just me, or does it look like the strings are actually sitting ON the frets? Talk about low action!

Pretty bass, tho!

-72

 

so how much taht thing cost?

 

somewhere above the 7,000 dollar range i believe. if i had the money i'd buy it, i love the look, sound, and feel of alembic series basses.

 

Good one!

I love cocobolo(drool!) but I just don't like the tone of Alembics. Sweet basses though.

 

I'm digging it! Actually...I don't want to try an Alembic. I'm worried I might like it. and those things are so freaking expensive it would probably be cheaper to do coke (insert horriblely cliche $500 a day habit comment here)...

Though...they look so niiiiiiice!!!!!

 

why not just get a custom made bass with an Alembic shaped body, and ajust the pickups and brigde to your liking?
