All user reviews of 4/5 for the Alembic Series I

My model still a signature Stanley Clarke shortscale "thank you for the info NB" 77 years and thank you I was wrong double07 section
So it has an electronic modified and simplified by Damico
it's not exactly the same as the picture I have not advanced in the ass and I have a 5 position switch in the handle +

I start with a bad note with this bass for electronic design in 70 years but catches everything! The total portable radio! The effect of vintage ...
yet it There's a third model on my micro reversed that reduces noise is the small black rectangle between the two pickups (there's no on the picture)
big problems for adjusting the pre amp at the time who did not hold and broke down and had to be replaced by changing a pre amp in Damico and with a modified e-mail I deleted the selector 5 positions.

after reading joe cool:
I agree with you on Chevallet is the nightmare of luthiers

UTILIZATION

The handle is a major work in the world of bass lute made for several wood, but it is really too small for me but hey it's a matter of practice very unbalanced this is especially low in my opinion for be played with a pick and in the studio because the weight of the thing seen is a feat to stand 2 h.

Note following a remark: I know that Stanley and marc king slap on it but I'm talking about normal for bass players who love the jazz bass style sleeves, although I can slap with it is especially drawn to it's hard the strings are very close marc king loves this kind of personal space but I find it unplayable for the shot on the big and middle rope but it's great for typed.

to find the sound There's just a plug in the settings are very accurate ..

SOUNDS

No, this bass does not suit me for the stage, but the studio is great because sitting is perfect given its weight!
Live on a table is perfect or a ampeg ca do that too since I have this bass 15a long time I played with and I just say it's a work I understand that most musicians do not play with the low price be? on stage is not obvious side weight and balance pokey stick,

Side tone:

2 double coils, a noise reduction microphone, stereo output class comes with an AC adapter, a cable 5-pin, pitch and volume for each micro switch for each pickup config, a simple double + 5-way switch config for a global micro serious - a micro acute - 2 microphones - 2 band EQ cut by micro; Pf especially once you have your sound you touch anything!
Once a sound has found there's more ....

OVERALL OPINION

To summarize a special low with a big character it will not suit everyone but my god what a sound!! Some are well understood .... I would never sell mine the violin is so beautiful that looked at the instrument and a pure fantasy ..
yes if I had as much I would model my personal home, but still good at 20 000 euros and for some custom models see the website is still at zero, but will see custom models ca worth really worth speaking of bass player!
is low for the rich and the craziest of us personal mine I paid
15 000 francs for sale (my first credit lol), I made a bargain at the time
it is an experience to do for a bass player ...
we like it or not
I do not play with every day but when I want to have a sound that kills and enfoutre impress the bassist that play with your teeth, you put it in a ampeg you make two notes RESPECT! lolll
