Hi Everyone.
 
So - I've just seen this on eBay.
 
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/B-ALEMBIC-SERIES-II-MAPLE-BURL-TRIPLE-OMEGA-BASS-AWESOM-/140577764879?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item20bb16760f
 
With a BIN price of $2,500 it would be cheap 2nd hand, let alone new!
 
Smells as fishy as a haddock's bathing costume, to me.
 
Cheers
James

Good news: That bass is on the market. The owner lives in the eastern United States.
 
Bad news: He has no connection to the two or three eBay auctions for that bass.

Auction is gone.
