alembic1989 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Much to my shame....I had my favourite bass (Alembic 20th Anniversary) sitting un played in its case for 4 years! I was hankering for a play on it recently.....opened the case...and was knocked out at its killer looks. Plugged it in..and just couldn't believe how great it played and sounded. Anyone else rediscovered theirs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Only by selling it, then buying it back. It was my `78 black/black/maple Precision. Both bands I was in at the time demanded white instruments only, so I sold it as it wasn`t being used. Left both bands earlier this year, and luckily the Basschatter I sold it to put it up for sale a short while after. Snapped it up and I consider myself very fortunate, it`s a great player and has the best recorded sound of any Precision I`ve had. So glad to have her back.

kodiakblair Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Glad you started this,was thinking the very same thing last night. I seem to do this fairly regular,granted there's more basses than sense here but last night it was the Harley Benton PB-50 strung with nylon. Good solid bass with no-frills before that it was the Retrovibe Evo. Flip side to this is I'm scared to play the old Washburns in case they don't cut it though I've a plan for that. Play the Squier Affinty after that POS they'll still sound good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Batteries in my ACG went about a month ago - it's been sitting waiting for new batteries...meanwhile I've been paying a basic passive Corvette - fitted new batteries to the ACG yesterday, plugged it in and blew my mind - weight, tone, feel, all superior by light years....
