The seller is the Alebmic dealer in Denver.
Same guy that is selling "Twilight" featured custom.

"Serious buyers only"! At 60K, that's the understatement of the year!

I knew it was too good to be true.  I recently got back from Russia and my Ebay is still showing some aspects of Russian influence.  I initially thought the price was in Russian Rubles (60,000 Russian Rubles = $941 U.S dollars) including some pricing. Ha! If it looks too good to be true than it probably is not true.

I bet it is really comfortable, light and easy to manage!

WOW,

Rare, can you say "understatement !  Beside the "Rex Bogue" played by John Mclaughlin, this is most stunning Twin neck ever made !!  we could throw Greg Lake's "Zemaitis" in as well ,  But, you just look at the Alembic & you need to pick you jaw up off the floor !!

Hm, it's here in Denver. I wonder who has it.

Based on his eBay handle matching his Forum name ("dinan" and "Dinan"), I think it's a "Carl".

A nice instrument . In the early 1990s if I remember correctly I could have purchased 72-001 and was informed with full disclosure that repairs were required but passed on the transaction . The asking price was just a small fraction of the asking price of this swell Double neck. :)

I think it sold in 2015 for a bit over $12.5K, including shipping.  That might have been the transaction that brought Goliath to the Denver area for a spell.

As far as I know the current owner became a member here when he got this doubleneck a few years ago. I have corresponded with him during that time. Price-wise might as well throw it against the wall and see what sticks? If it does sell for this price, then I've got an earlier Alembic doubleneck for the bargain price of $30,000!
