Alembic Orion Bass 6st MOD Natural [SN 970W10687] [06/02]

Alembic Orion Bass 6St Rare 6-string bass with outstanding quality and unique sound
The Orion Bass 6St is an Alembic masterpiece that combines tradition and innovation. 34" scale 6-string version with a luxurious mahogany and rosewood body and ebony fingerboard. The head shape is not the usual Orion shape, but the coveted Crane shape.
Equipped with the original Alembic MXY4 pickups, it produces a clear and rich tone with flexible control over balance, bass, and treble. The precision craftsmanship and rarity of the finish will satisfy any bassist's desire to own one.
Perfect for professional musicians and collectors alike who want to experience the history and sound of Alembic.
Currently, the first duplicate string is not strung. The pegs are attached to the back end of the body, and the strings are threaded through the head. The warranty does not cover the use of this modified part. There are two holes that have been filled in the control area on the top of the body.
There are other signs of use such as scratches, dents, dull parts, rust, and peeling chrome, but there are no practical problems. The neck is in good overall playing condition.
Item Rank: B+: Some scratches, but no problems in normal use.
