2001 Brown Bass in VERY good condition but not mint. Electronics modified by Alembic. Mono/stereo B.B. electronics with master volume control and bass boost/cut switch on neck p/u. Will put original Alembic knobs back on.
 
LOOKING FOR: Alembic with lighter (in color) wood such as any maple (burl, birds eye, flame,quilted)or Zebra with mahogany or walnut core. Laminates would be nice but not important.
 
Body Shape: Small Standard (like the B.B) Standard (would prefer 3/4) Spolier, Essence, Elan
 
Pick-ups: I Would prefer soap bar pickups.  
 
Electronics: I prefer SC or MK but I WILL accept lower grade electronics
 
Condition: Does not have to be mint. Equal condition to my bass is preferred.  
 
I want to trade this because my other Alembics have dark wood and I want one with lighter wood. This is a great opportunity if you want to trade up. Attached is a pic. If you have questions and want more pix, please email me (see profile for addy)

Are you thinking about selling?

please provide more details as to electronics.  Thanks

What is the scale length? Can you provide full length photos?
 
Chuck

Chuck,
A basic brown bass is what I was playing the night you stopped by. It is a short scale. Stoney's has the additions of a master volume and bass boost on the neck pickup. I can't talk to the bass boost switch but the master volume is something that I would like on my bass.

Hi Chuck, Yep, short scale. Here's a full length.

Hi Stoney,
I'm interested in your offer, if it's still available.  For trade, I have an 1992 flame maple Essence-5 (fretted)that I bought in 1994, brand new (w/ Alembic hs case).  My email: terry@uoregon.edu
 
Some details:
34 scale
Pickups: 2WMXY (soapbars)
Tuners: Chrome, Gotoh
Fingerboard: Ebony
Neck: 7 pc maple
 
Question:  How do you compare playing a short scale (32 ?) to a regular scale (34 or 35)?
 
I'm uploading a photo of it and am happy to send more.

Hi All,
I recently completed an exchange for the Brown Bass. Thanks for your interest.
Stoney
