Get it. I have two from '82, and it was a very good year.

82 a good year?
I've never heard that before..
are there any bad years? or was 82 a particularly good year for some reason?

Gosh, now I'm just curious since it has been taken down from the Bass Emporium site.  What was it?
 
Good luck to all.  I hope it finds a good home in the club with those reactions.

We have a confirmed kill... head shot!
 
Mission accomplished.
 
I bought the bass and it is on it's way to Portland, OR.  
 
He sent me close ups of it and it doesn't get any sweeter than this...  I have 3 Europa's: a '91, a newer custom Coco Bolo, and my newest Series II Coco Bolo.  Anyways, I have been looking for a vintage Alembic Series for some time now in mint shape, and this was it.
 
I will let you know when she gets here.  Merry X-mas to me!

The bass is a medium-scale cocobolo Omega Series 2 four-string. Congratulations, Andy.
 
spose, I've played a few Alembics and owned five, and my '82s are probably my favorites.

Somebody loved the hell out of that bass. So glad it was one of us who got it.
