Hopefully I get the chance to dig it's vibe to the fullest extent.

Hi Ken; yes it is still available.  Email sent.
 
By the way, Mica sent me the build details:
 
MSBI-4 Series I 4-string bass
top: Rosewood
body: Mahogany
back: Rosewood
neck: Maple and Purpleheart
scale: 32 medium
fingerboard: Ebony
neck note: reinforced with graphite
peghead veneers: Rosewood
tuners: Schaller
 
I had not previously known that it has a graphite reinforced neck.  Very cool!
 
In response to another emailed inquiry, I recently plugged it into my rig; and it sounded wonderful.  So much so that there was the idea that this bass would be worth my deciding to focus on fretless.  But then I remembered how I still need to focus all of my practice time on my six string.  This bass will at some point make a wonderful voice for someone.

Dave, for some reason I did not receive the email. Please try again.

Ken; I sent it again a few minutes ago, but now I'm noticing that the email address in your club profile is not the same as the address on the email that I replied to, which I'm guessing is your work address.  So if you haven't checked your work email, look there.

Very strong spam protection at work (administrator), it did not go through. I sent you a link. Check your mail.

Dave, w/ the graphite reinforcements, does this bass still have dual truss rods???
 
I can't help but mention that every time I see this bass I think prime real estate for a mission control electronics upgrade.....

Hi Ken; I just got in, and yes, I have email!
 
Mike; yes, it does have dual truss rods, and they work as expected.  And for a control layout, do you mean like this one?

Hello there -- I've been interested in the right Alembic fretless bass for some time, and yours seems quite promising.  Will you please email me the asking price?  Beautiful instrument, indeed!  ~Ryan

Hi Ryan; it appears that a sale is pending.  If for some reason it isn't completed, I will email you.

Too bad for me.  Thanks, and please do drop me a line if the deal falls through.

LOL, Dave.... That's not quite what I had in mind. I was thinking master vol, CVQs, and perhaps filter gains.
