Hi everybody! I'm very proud to join this forum! I'm now the incredibly happy owner of an Alembic bass! I just bought a brand new Stanley Clarke Signature Deluxe with quilted maple top and back. I so love quilted tops!!! I wasn't on buying such a kind of instrument, but when I saw it on the Bass Central website, I couldn't resist to buy it! It was not really reasonable for me because I've already bought 3 other basses this year!!!  some pics of my new baby.  

 

  Cheers!!! DDA

Congrats again Didier on your addition to the gang of basses!  You'll probably have a hard time putting this one down!  
 
The quilting is beautiful!  Enjoy!

Hi again! Here is a new pic! Now I've received my bass and I love her!!!
That's me holding proudly my new baby!
 

 
From left to right you can see my other basses:
1971 (my birth's year) Fender Jazz bass,
1967 New Old Stock dead mint unplayed 1967 Fender Coronado II bass,
Namm 07 2007 Rickenbacker 4003,
And my 2 MusicMan StingRays: The 2006 30th Anniversary is fitted with a clear mirror pickguard, and the 2005 StingRay5 is fitted with an aluminium brushed pickguard.
 
And now I've just given an order for a MK deluxe with coco bolo top and back! I should receive it in march or april! Waouuuuuuuuw!
 
Cheers!

J'y crois pas ... c'est toi Didier, l'alembixxx ??
C'est vrai qu'elle est belle !!!
Je cherche un bassiste d'accompagnement, bosse un peu ;o)) Tu va l'amplifier avec quoi maintenant que je t'ai pris tes SWR ?
;o)

Hehe!
 
Salut mon ami!!!! Oui c'est bien moi!!! C'est un scoop! Une merguez qui joue sur Alembic! Hahaha! Une premi?re!!!
 
Figure toi que j'ai presque un regret d'avoir vendu mes colonnes et ma t?te!!! Du coup j'ai achet? une t?te et une colonne Eden (la plus compacte et la moins puissante, comme ?a je peux jouer chez moi en appart! On les devine sur la photo derri?re les MusicMan). C'est vrai que le son est super!!! J'ai d? faire vite car c'?tait la seule Alembic Stanley Clarke qu'ils avaient encore ? l'ancien prix! Et j'adooooore le quilted maple!!!
 
Youpeeeee et ? + sur le forum???!!!
 
))))

Hee hee!
Hi my friend!!! Yes it's really me!!! It's a scoop!!! A sausage playing an Alembic! Hee hee hee!
I nearly have some regrets to have sold my amp and cabinets to you! So I had to replace them and I just bought an Eden amp and cabinet (the most compact and less powerful, so I can play at home! We can just see them behind my two MusicMan). That's true that the sound is awsome! I had to decide quickly because it was the last SC at the old price!!! And I so loooooove quilted maple!!!
Yeepeeee and see you soon on the forum???!!!
Cheers,
DDA

tu te prends pour une merguez ?
k?kidit
;o)))

I believe some variaties of quilted maple are known as sausage. My knowledge of the French vernacular (argot) is not really up-to-date - so what makes a person a merguez?

merguez is a north african sausage !!!
I don't know why Didier is using this name about him !!

In that case, a merguez is simply a guy (me) who is a very bad bass player!!! I think its more a french description!!! I don't know in english how to qualify it!
