I just sent my Brown Bass to the mother ship for a heat bend, a minor electronics mend, and a possible polyurethane finish.  What is Alembic's typical turnaround time?

The sound of one hand clapping?
 
Bill, tgo

How long is that?  About a month?  

Like most things Alembic, I don't believe there is a typical answer to the question.  Each project/instrument is different.  Each presents uniquely and has its own particular issues.  The only attempt at an answer I can offer, in my own experience, is that you won't get it back until it is done to perfection.
 
Bill, tgo

All too true.  I expect nothing but perfect work, but good work takes time.  My bass deserves time.
 
I'm just hoping that people with similar work will be able to share their experience.  Plus I might have expectations that are unrealistic for this work.  I'm hoping for about a month, but am considering getting a temporary replacement Alembic if it may take considerably longer.
 
Pierre, if you're listening, how long did it take to get your MK from the heat bend?

The turnaround can be as short as a week or as long as a month. I'm usually pretty good about getting this across when making arrangements, so I'm sorry if I didn't make it clear.  
 
Pierre's bass was completed in 2 days, and we waited for the following Monday to ship so it would arrive the same week.

Thanks for the info Mica!  You may have told me, but am prone to forget such things.
