Ain't she a beauty?
 

Oh yeah, I got the blues again...

What a steel, this beauty! Did Bass NW twist somebody's arm real hard when selling her or is there another reason why this SII trades for well under half its (current) new price? Could it be that a long scale 5-er with this body shape is prone to neck diving?  
I'm trying to block out those European prices on 2nd hand Alembics..... re. some things in life, we definitely live on the wrong side of the pond.

Hey guys, this bass came up in an earlier discussion. The owner chimed in on why he had traded in. Here is the post http://club.alembicguitars.net/Images/393/10485.html?1086905704
I myself thought it seemed like a great way to get into a series II.
