Weird...ended with 2 bids, but now it's not available for viewing and says the listing has been removed.(edit: I guess its viewable with the above link.)
 ...from fishy to fishier .

you can still can see the ad under completed listings. i copied his text just to have the reference here in the future. definitely an odd one - looks like the 2 bids were from the same person - sold for $5995.99 - would love to know how this turns out if someone here knows.
 
cases and shipping included, 4k is half count new, includes the 3 bass guitars  see a 4 string 5 string and 6 string same style jet black. gold hardware, bat/tab string clever, 2 hum pickups, truss rod, solid body, graphite neck, inlays, active electronics give it the undead sound. paid 2500.each to hollywood ca, made in usa, a one night sale, iff yyou see thiss thesse are passed  from hell to hottie!!!

I picked 'em up. All are actual Alembics, all function. They needed some BAD TLC as they were strung bottom to top, loose volume pots, loose tuners, loose p/ups, minor fret buzz on the 4. All sound killer vintage Alembic. The 5 and the 6 especially are heavier than F%$*. NON graphite necks. All were recently refretted before sale and needed the frets smoothed down and beveled as they stuck out of the fingerboards slightly. All were neglected and covered w/ grime and goo and every point on all the bodies had at least a scuff. Some minor chips here and there. Bottom line, these babies were neglected!! Chips Music in Jacksonille FL has finished the repair work on the 4 and 5.

Rich, Congratulations! Glad to hear they've found a good home!  Art

Thanks. I've played the five at a few gigs. It balances nicely, and once it was set up properly, it plays and sounds killer. Fast bass for a five. HEAVY but well balanced. The 6 string MAY go back on Ebay if I need the cash....too much of a beast for gigs. I'd hate to break up the set though.

U have the 4 ?  R u keeping it ?  If not how much r u willing to part w it for?

I am interested in the 6 string if you want to sell

I may sell the 4 and the 6. If I do, they'll go on ebay and I'll post the link here.

I see the 6 is up for bidding, it's nice to see some clear pictures...I might have to see what I can sell quickly to make a bid.
 cheers

Yes, I have put the 6 up. Check it-

Thanks! I'm KEEPING the 5.......sorry, fellow Alembicans.
