Hello,
 
After years of wanting an Alembic bass I finally scored one! It's an Epic and I am posting to try and find out more about the history of it. The S/N is 93W8092. Found it in Monterey CA. I think it was made in 93 due to the S/N but I didn't think Epic models were made before 94. Any info would be great on the bass.  After a little bit of refurbishing it's going to be played a LOT live for sure  
 
Thanks,
->Steve
