This one always feels like coming home, though it came into the stable later than some others.
32 inch scale makes it very comfortable to play and sounds awesome.
Solid Koa body (one of the first +/- 100 Spoilers)
"Almost" replica of Jason Newsted's JPJ Elan
Upgrades include: Flame Maple neck lams, elaborated electronics (Filter + 3-way Q for each pickup), more comfortable neck taper (though that's personal)
My first Alembic, what a gamechanger that was :-)
Currently not used very much, because its tuned extremely low (ADGC) for two songs only.
Can do all the singing by itself, very little effort is needed to make this sound so sweet.
Electronics upgraded to EMW, added a Filter + Q to the normal Orion setup.
And the third I owned, the two before this one were really bad. :-)
Alembic pickup and electronics, slightly altered finish.
This is a tone monster with very much power, used to slave into a Strategy 400 but gave up on that because sound engineers were going crazy :-)
Old version with 6x6550 output tubes, I use it with two 1x15 Mesa Diesel cabs
All equipped with EVM speakers, replaced the 10 inch drivers for 8 ohm EVM10L (so they're 4 ohm cabs now)
(Picture was taken pre 10 inch speaker swap)
Very nice and plenty loud for the band I use these in. I use two to utilize the "stereo" output of my Alembic Series I. (one combo for each pickup)
Noiseless, had no problems with dropouts and extremely generous to audio all the way from the lowest bass and highest treble. (very noticeable with my Alembic basses)
