| have asked how they could get the Alembic sound |
| without the size and weight of the classic Alembic |
| instruments. Our answer is the Essence.We took the |
| lead for the design from right half of the Small |
| Standard body. We slimmed this down until it was |
| barely big enough to hold the electronics. For the |
| left half, we extended the horn so the bass would |
| balance as a long scale. For 5-string and 6-string |
| versions, the upper horn is longer yet to retain |
| the excellent balance. The Essence bass is our |
| smallest body - a scant 12 inches across.The heart |
| of the Essence s tone is the Alembic low-pass |
| filter, the same tone control we pioneered in 1969 |
| when Ron Wickersham first introduced active |
| electronics to the musical world. With this one |
| tone control, a wide range of sounds from deep to |
| bright are available with a simple twist of one |
| knob. Even a small amount of rotation can produce |
| a big change in tone.The Essence bass gives you |
| all the essentials of Alembic: neck through body |
| construction, Alembic pickups and active |
| electronics, solid brass hardware, all crafted in |
| Santa Rosa, California, USA, the only place that |
| Alembics are born. |
