Hi Tom,
Welcome to the forum.  Thanks for bringing your Alembic gear here.  Good luck with the sale.
Best, Art

Hey Art
 
Do you know if Alembic has any red caps laying around the shop?  I've been watching for a F-2B, but I'm pretty sure the missing cap combined with my OCD tendencies would make my head explode.

Welcome to the OCD club !  LOL ,  Me too!

Mike, I'll need to direct this question to Mica.  I don't know exactly what's around the shop.  My first guess would be that the red caps are not available due to their age - certainly never hurts to ask.  Art

Alembic still had a bunch of red caps when I picked up my F-2B a couple of years ago.  Call Mica.
 
Bill, tgo

Cool.  I just sent Tom the $$$ for this unit.  I'm looking forward to playing with it (the F-2B, not my...).  Now I'm on the lookout for a SF-2.  I never have really used my Series I very much.  With the F-2B, I think I'll be more inclined to use it to its full potential.  I hate to bug Mica over the cap, but that really will drive me crazy!!!  Anybody have the shop's phone number???

Here you are Mike.  http://www.alembicguitars.net/family/contact.html

What years were the Metal Knobbed Blue chassis F-2B units  in production?  
 I have one like that , It is in near mint condition and It's a keeper !
