1980s Alembic Exploiter Bass Guitar
This 1980s Alembic Exploiter Bass is a rare and iconic instrument from one of the most innovative bass manufacturers in history. Alembic, known for pioneering active electronics and high-end craftsmanship, introduced the Exploiter shape in the early ‘80s, combining their signature tone and build quality with an aggressive, Explorer-style body. This model was favored by legendary players like John Entwistle of The Who, making it a sought-after piece for collectors and players alike.
Featuring a stunning walnut finish, this bass has aged gracefully, showing signs of wear consistent with its vintage status, including scratches, minor grime, and a naturally worn-in look. One pickup has a small chip in the frame, exposing some foam, but it does not affect performance. The bass has recently been cleaned, set up, and tested by a professional guitar tech, ensuring optimal playability. If you’re looking for a piece of bass history with Alembic’s renowned craftsmanship and unmistakable tone, this Exploiter is an excellent find. Includes original hard case and soft case.
A true collector’s piece with legendary tone—don’t miss out on this vintage Alembic bass!
