Still online.. any thoughts about this one? Looks sweet. Maybe too narrow string spacing?


Gerade bei #eBayKleinanzeigen gefunden. Wie findest du das?

Really nice bass. Looking at the control pattern, I wonder if the electronics might be Elan Plus, and if it would be a single preamp or two.

i have an 89 elan 4 with that electronics package and i guess it is just before the europa came out. i don't know about the two preamps tho. How can you tell?

now, that's a pretty bass!

by my calculations USD $3378.95 providing you could get it to the US. 
Been down...now i'm out!

The number of adjustable trimpots in the electronics cavity should correspond to the number of preamps.

Whoever put the strings on that bass REALLY went overboard with the wraps around the tuning pegs!

Seems like a great price for a really nice looking bass.
