Description
The 1999 Alembic Orion fretless bass guitar is a testament to its era, combining exquisite craftsmanship with a timeless sound that appeals to both collectors and modern-day musicians. This sleek instrument is crafted with a contoured, solid mahogany body and a Watermark Koa top, offering not just visual allure but also tonal depth and richness. The Alembic MXY4 active electronics deliver a versatile sonic palette, allowing you to seamlessly navigate between genres with precision and clarity.
The neck is a meticulous 3-piece maple construction with walnut pinstripes, topped with an ebony fingerboard that facilitates smooth, effortless playability. Its fretless design invites creativity, giving you the freedom to explore a wide range of expressive sounds. The hardware is equally impressive, featuring a brass tailpiece and a four-saddle adjustable bridge for stable tuning and intonation. With a 34" scale length and a 1.625" width brass nut, this bass is engineered for comfort and performance.
Despite its age, this instrument has been well-cared for, exhibiting only minor cosmetic wear like surface scratches and small nicks that add to its character without detracting from its functionality. It arrives professionally set up, ready to accompany you on your next musical journey. A true gem for any bass enthusiast, the Alembic Orion is more than just a bass—it's an experience.
