I have the first 3630 ever manufactured. It is a Black Face/Yellow stripe with serial number 1.

How did I get this?

It’s a funny story let me tell you. Mr. Alesis presented this to me… uhh.. well gave it to me as kind of a buy off. You see I was dating his daughter Aliza and he didn’t like it. He offered me cash and even a 65 Shelby Cobra, but I told him that if he wanted me not to see his daughter again he would have to give me the first ever 3630 made, and it had to be personalized.

Notice in the first picture the serial is CL1. The CL stands for classic, and of course the personalized monogram from Mr. Alesis himself. In the next picture you’ll see that I have placed it in the rack. I segregated it from all of the other unclean rack gear with a blank panel. Also notice the factory yellow stripe – one of a kind! I’m sure you’re wondering why there are Q-Tips on the rack mount holes – well all I can say is that no rack screw will ever deface those rack ears. (unlike Aliza)

Furthermore, I made sure that the Q-Tips were kosher as not to make it unclean – How you say? I dipped them in pickle juice.

Eat your heart out folks – I have the sluttiest piece of gear on this forum, and I will retire knowing that giving up Aliza was the best financial move I ever made!
