Recently moved and found the build sheet for my old '92 Elan 5 string that I sold years ago. The bass was stolen and retrieved missing parts, sanded down and stained black. It was sold in this condition, basically a "husk" with most of the parts.
I don't remember what platform I used to sell the bass, I did a cursory look and came up empty.
If anyone here knows its whereabouts I'd like to get the paperwork to the owner if they would like it.
Thanks!!
Ah, you seek Gregory (aka Edward of Huncote)
Not sure if he is recovered enough to get in to this. But he is That Guy* that knows more than anyone should about sn's and locations of instruments.
Here is your earlier thread, hope it helps.

Ha! I might be *that guy*, but probably not much help this time. I do declare that there is another thread on this bass though... the one Bro. Paul referenced is well before my time, but something tells me that particular Elan 5 resurfaced again in my time here.
Let me dig around for it. I think it's in a troubleshooting thread, or maybe a very old sale thread... like, "I'll buy this if I can get parts for it" kinda' deal. It's been at least 6-7 years ago. Maybe more.
Awesome! Thank You!
I had forgotten even making that post(hard to believe it was in 2005!)...I do remember posting something later but my memory is not very good.
I'm still digging through emails/eBay etc. If I come up with anything I'll update.
The situation with that bass was such a negative for me...it would feel good to make a small positive lol.
Here's a "before before" shot of the bass. Had a lot of fun gigs with her.
