wow...thats alot of Alembics!!  
 
Things look alot more expensive over there...
I did a currency conversion on the price listed for the sf2....949.00 EU = 1,151.79 USD
 
arent these about 800.00 bucks in the states new?

Well ...now you see why we Alembicians at THIS side of the pond are REALLY the weirdo's. Nobody really gets it ...why the ??+?***&^!? are you paying that much for a non EU bass.
Oh well ....it's all in the mind I guess ...

As a nutcase living in the northeast I must take exception to Brad's remark. OK I don't really, because it's true. You really do take life into your hands. Although, LA driving makes me crazier than in Boston where you're either going 70mph or 15mph. But at least you're moving. In LA it's 70 one minute and parked the next. I noticed in Oregon people there drive like there really is a tomorrow. It didn't make sense to me because I thought in New England as everything is much closer together there wouldn't be a need to drive maniacally. Where in the west with the great distances between places there would be a greater need for speed.... Go figure.
