Oooh. If  money was no object i would probably have the largest collection of elan basses on the planet.  
Gorgeous.  
To save and danger to my finances can the moderators make it illegal for anyone to post a series elan bass on here for sale. :-)

?and slowly?slowly, you're giving me the Elan bug Jazzyvee  The absence of my SII is making me look for another one, for the time being.

It looks to me like it is part Elan and part Europa in the bass. The horns look Elan as does the neck & electronics, the body core looks mahogany which is a europa item and so is the style of the forearm cutaway and truss rod cover.
Superb bass whatever it is. i guess the serial number would tell a lot.

Serous considering this one; I don't have a four string Elan...yet.....

No longer available, did someone from our forum bought it? Always good to know where nice basses end up

It's relisted, apparently seller accidently deleted listing. He's also dropped it to $2000 or b.o.
