For customers residing in Japan
1986 ALEMBIC EXPLOITER
This is a very rare model that will remain in deep memory because it was used by John Entwistle, a great bass player who always pursued the cutting edge of the times and contributed to the development of roundwound bass strings. Needless to say, the shape is inspired by the GIBSON EXPLORER, and the model name "EXPLOITER" is a cool and stylish name, isn't it?
This particular model uses KOA for the top wood, which is impressive for its beautifully detailed flaming. John's model had a spider-web shaped brass decoration embedded in the elbow, but this one is simply finished without any decoration. The circuit is also simple, with 1 VOL, 1 FILTER, and PU selector, and is powered only by batteries for ease of use. The sound is unique, with a wide range and a heavy airy feel, and of course, with the filter controller, the tones are infinite.
There are a few screw holes between the pickups on the 4th string side where finger rests were installed by a previous user. The overall beauty of the guitar remains and the brass bridge is still shiny.
This is one of the most memorable pieces born in the turbulent 80's.

1986年製 ALEMBIC EXPLOITER
常に時代の先端を探求しラウンドワウンドベース弦の開発にも貢献したベース界の偉人ジョン・エントウィッスルの使用で深く記憶に残る激レアモデルです。シェイプは言うまでもなくGIBSON EXPLORER にインスパイアされたもので、モデル名もEXPLOITER とセンスの良いシャレたネーミングがイカしてますよね(古いｗ)
当個体はトップ材にKOA を使用し美しい細かなフレイムが印象的です。ジョンの使用機にはエルボ部にスパイダーウェブ(蜘蛛の巣)状にデザインされたブラス製の装飾が埋め込めれていましたが、こちらはシンプルに装飾のない状態で仕上げております。回路もシンプルに1VOL、1FILTER、PUセレクタ 、バッテリーのみで駆動するスタイルで使いやすさ重視。サウンドはアレンビックらしいワイドレンジ且つ重厚な空気感を纏った独特なもの、もちろんフィルターコントローラー装備で音色は無限大∞です。
前ユーザー様が取り付けたのか4弦側ピックアップの間にフィンガーレストを取り付けたネジ穴が数か所確認できますが、こちらは当方で埋め直しました。全体的に美観は残っておらずブラス製ブリッジの光沢も残った状態です。
80年代という激動の時代の中に生まれ鮮烈に記憶に残る1本です。
