[quote name='hiram.k.hackenbacker' timestamp='1489003511' post='3253694'] It should do. I think it was the one I bought from you [/quote] Indeed it was sir.... and thanks for setting up the deal !! I owe you one

[quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1489002838' post='3253689'] Well look at that beauty, and being offered by a man who really knows his Stingrays and Fleas! I am SO tempted. Have to say that the idea of an 'unplanned purchase of a blue sparkle Modulus Flea' made me smile, and felt strangely close to home! Mark, I'd love that mate, but I'm building something similar at present, albeit something that will no doubt cost more but not be as good. Timing as ever! Good luck with the sale mate Chris [/quote] Ha Ha.... can't turn down a flea bass these days !! The Lane Poor is on order Good luck with the project Chris ATB Mark

[quote name='big rob' timestamp='1488578120' post='3250317'] I wish it was me that had brought it but I missed out. [/quote] Sorry about that Big Rob.... I've never kept a bass forever yet so who knows..... you can have first dibs if I ever sell it ATB

I'm almost sure I had this at some point !

The last word in Bass pre-amps ! I ran one with DB728 for a while with a pair of GS410's Yeah... that was a tone !!!

Sold Pending Payment & Delivery etc

With the exchange rate it's +£10k !! then you'd have Duty and shipping to pay on top of that ! The cocobola upgrade to a standard is crazy money and the stinger body shape is $800 in itself !! I've been fortunate to have a number of Series and DLX Signatures and this Bass trumps them all for great time !! Something about not having a rear hardwood facing that seems to open up the tone.... With the possible exception af an 83 Reissue VW Fodera (possible) this is the most alive and resonant instrument I've ever had in my grubby mits... it just radiates !! Mark

All PM's up to date

just realised how rubbish these photo's are when i've logged into BC from my iMac ! I'd better get some decent pictures up at some point tomorrow !!!

Hi It was specced to just have a top and leave the body wood to 'breathe' the theory being that a top and a back in coco makes the tone harsh. Alembic won't allow you to take a saving on a deluxe by removing the back wood as such the bass was specced as a standard and stringers and coco top upgrades applied. The coco top is crazy expensive as and upgrade to a standard....!! The stinger tail is like $800 upgrade in itself !! Regards Mark

Lovely bass.....

For Sale - Stunning example of a Mark King Signature Alembic. 34' Scale Gorgeous Deep Dark Chocolate Cocobola Top Mahogany Core Rare Omega Pount 'Stinger' body shape 100% absolutely mint !! As it left Alembic. It's 10 years old but was owned by a mature gentleman who always wanted an Alembic as a 'Trophy Bass' as such it's pretty much always lived in its 'monster Alembic Flight Case' The Bass was a custom order not an 'off the shelf' stock bass This instrument is lighter than most Alembics I've owned and I'm pretty sure it's chambered as per the series instruments. It plays like butter and has a big voice !! Yes for sure it does the HiFi MK tone to a Tee with a set of lighter gauge strings, I have it set up with 46-105 DR's and it's got an almost J Bass 'Bigness' to the note, clear and articulate but fat and punchy with it !! Perfect.... Without question the most resonant and 'alive' Bass I've ever picked up.... it simply 'sings' and my God that E 'Gongs' !!! I've been lucky enough to have had 4 series instruments and 7 Signatures and hands down this is by far the pick of the bunch ! Due to giving up playing Live I'm finding it tough to justify having this bass just sitting around, I want to build a custom 'Fat Bike' for the winter so.... I'm really only after cash but may possibly consider a USA MM Sub as a cheap PX PM me with any Questions.... I've priced it extremely cheaply.... so any daft offers will be ignored, the price is firm ! This Bass is well North of £10k plus duty and shipping Regards Mark

Hi Are the Lindy's single coil or humcancelling ? Thanks

[quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1470655185' post='3107321'] Congrats. One of these is on my lust list. [/quote] thanks man..... not owned one before so can't wait !

looking forward to getting this bad boy !

I wish the exchange was still 1.41 !! This would be mine

I've played this and it's got bags of vintage vibe... Plenty of flexibility tone wise and plays great !

Sorry Sold a while ago.....
