I may be wrong, but I believe that's the 'Vector' body shape and that looks to me like a Koa top.  Nice looking bass, and seems to have a very reasonable starting bid.  If those controls are just volume/filter, this would not be a particularly versatile instrument as far as tone, but that's not to say anything bad about the tones it CAN make.

Thta's the VECTOR body indeed and not the Elan. And Elan has a slanted body-style and reminds more to a Jazz-bass.
This IS beautiful and I should say VERY rare! Alembic going Fender P is dripping off it. I am sure soundwise it will be VERY different from a P.

Thanks for the info.  I've placed a bid, the only bid at this moment, and we'll see how lucky I get.
