Hey, first timer here.

Been looking at these absolutely wonderful guitars made by Alembic. Slobbering over the gorgeous tops, so offer up any any used Alembic guitars (no basses.)

Thanks.

If you wanted a quicker response email me at gkweston@gmail.com

PS: I have a Warmoth WGD, by the way (heheheh I loove it.)

Hi, I'd be up for selling this Orion Baritone guitar. I bought it in the autumn last year but have not really got that familiar with it.

Not sure whether it's what you are looking for.

Emailed ya!

After futhur (gettit?) investigation it looks like I'll be huntin' for an Orion.

Preferably standard, but a baritone is tempting.

Did you see this thread?

gkweston · February 17, 2009, 01:59:47 PM

Thanks you for the input. Yes I just saw that but as bsee said sort of pricey for a used Orion. That's double what they have typically sold for over the past year or two. So I'll have to pass. Thanks though, I appreciate the help.

Alembic Club is very friendly as I see. Very cool.

Cool top, nice guitar! Flame Walnut. $3K.

gkweston · February 17, 2009, 07:45:15 PM

I'm diggin' that walnut.

But my wallet's not. :/

Thanks though, that's a beautiful guitar.

So I'll give you a little background on this Alembic search of mine. A good buddy of mine has an Alembic Epic ('94 or something) he bought it from Bass Northwest, I believe. Some of you may know the place. Anyway, I started jammin' with him a lot recently and decided to play bass on a few tunes and realized Wow! This is groovy! So I find if their guitars play, feel or sound half as well as that bass did then I gotta get one.

Hence my Orionic search.

Phew.
