Yes ,It is official. My Lefty Europa w/case on the block! Any and all offers considered. Check it out in the Showcase. Mike

Hey Mike, I see the Europa is on EBay. It's a beauty, if I didn't already own an  walnut Orion with Europa electronics, I would be interested.  I see my Distillate peeking out behind it in one picture.
Best of luck with the auction and hopefully it will land in a good home!  
Keep in touch.

Hey Paul, I hope your enjoying the Distillate! I miss it's unique tone. So warm and round. My wife and kids keep telling me that they wish I'd never sold it! How odd? I have two beautiful Series 2's and yet they seem to pine over that Distillate. Just goes to show you...  that Alembic magic seems to be in everything that they make!

Hi Mike,  I'm surprised the family liked the Distillate over your Series Basses, they must feel sorry for the poor step child bass (compared to your others that is...) Unfortunately, I have not seen the Distillate for a very long time; I sent it to  the mothership in May to get some new hardware and an electronics upgrade. The crew is way behind schedule and repairs/upgrades are at the bottom of the list, so I'm not sure when to expect it back, but I get to see pictures of it on your EBay auction for the Europa!
I can't beleive some lefty has not grabbed your Europa already, a gently used high end lefty Alembic is hard to find. Someone is missing a great opportunity...

If only I was a lefty, it WOULD BE MINE!!! AH HA  
HA HA HA!!!!!
 
BTW, I kind of miss my Distillate too, my first Alembic, got it for a song and it was in pristine condition. Reason for selling?, looks are'nt everything and it just did not inspire me to the extent to where I had to keep it.

Good News! (or bad depending on your point of view),The Europa is officially sold!

Hey Paul, I'm curious, What kind of upgrades are you having done? Low noise upgrade? I thought those were only for series electronics.  Mike

Mike, congrats on the sale of the Europa, I hope it went to a good home.  
I am having the nut, bridge & tailpiece replaced on the Distillate, as you know, some bonehead strung it righty and cut, filed & chopped away pieces (very poorly) to accomodate backwards stringing, it was driving me nuts. Also, the crew is upgrading the circuit board while they have it.
