Alembic Further 6 Buckeye Burl - Resin Top


Modelled after one of our earliest guitar experiments (later known as "Wolf"), the Further guitar is quite simply one of the coolest little guitars around.

The semi hollow contruction helps keep the weight down to a managable 8ish pounds. The small body balances well on a guitar strap and likewise when playing seated.

Equipped with extremely flexible electronics that bring you from robust lows to clear and distinct highs, the Further doesn't disappoint in the tone department. On the contrary, this instrument allows you to hear even the most subtle of your techniques, and encourages you to develop your own voice.

Can a guitar take you further? We think you'll agree that it can.

Holy f*ck. And not in a good way.

Incredible workmanship to produce something that does not appeal.

 

[jelloman]

It's a bit much...

 

[Knox in Box]

Wow, they found a way to make a burl top even less appealing to me.

 

[mongooz]

$26,000+ ????
somebody has an extremely inflated notion of what their (very ugly) work is worth.

 

[Monson]

Colorful, I guess, but I'd have no use for that.

 

[BuzzBaloo]

I mean, it's an Alembic, so it's pretty much what I would expect. I'm sure it's an incredibly well-made piece.

 

[DinoMikeSr]

That’s a beautiful piece of work. Crazy attention to detail.

I like the nut and the side markers.











Did I mention that I like the nut and the side markers?

For the record, if I had money to burn, I would totally snap this up. It's a Jerry guitar, without being an overt copy of a Jerry guitar. And trippy as ****!

I think it does the acid trip deadhead thing well. I think it looks better than their plainer stuff.

 

[dodgechargerfan]

BLARGH!

 

[Chicken Man]

I'd love to try an Alembic, but this would be towards the bottom of the want list.

 

[Honkridge]

I really like that body shape but I'll pass on the rest.

 

[Guitar Heel]

that's a tall glass of nope.

 

[BlockInlay]

Neato top for a stage guitar. I don’t like all the cosmetic shit alembic uses though. If this were on a really good strat or something, with no pickguard and standard hardware, I’d say sure. And at a 10th or less the price.

 

[jp_nyc]

And at a 10th or less the price.

Holy shit. I didn’t bother looking because I just assumed it would be $10,000. But even for an Alembic this price is crazy.

Yep. Love the guitar, hate the price.
