ALEMBIC

Series 1

1981

“Long Scale”

FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION.

Another incredible Alembic bass guitar from my personal collection (I am a collector). Built in 1981 (SN: 81-1818), this is the Long Scale model (I am selling one of my short scale pieces in another listing).

This guitar comes with the original Alembic Power Supply and cables. These are very hard to find.

Condition: This guitar is in excellent condition. There is evidence of finish “cracking” all over the guitar which is natural and found on all Alembic’s of this age. No cracks. Few dents, dings, scratches, etc.

Comes with original flight case.

 MY TRY IT OUT POLICY.

Understanding the normal hesitation of buying a guitar without first playing it, I want to make sure these guitars make you happy. To accomplish that, I want you to try them for 72 hours (three days). Play them, hold them, walk around with them on your back, sleep with then-whatever it takes for you to make sure these are the ones for you. During that time, you can return them for a full refund of your payment price (but of course they need to be treated well while you have them, as I expect you will) less shipping cost and you must pay the cost to ship it back to us.

If it arrives damaged, please let me know immediately by email. Be sure to hold onto all packing material and the box. I will contact the shipper for an inspection. Remember that this can take up to a couple of weeks but I will rush it along.

Minor problems. If there is a problem with one of the guitars when it arrives, e.g., loose wires etc. then I will work with you to get it repaired by someone in your area.
