It's both. The fingerboard is narrower than standard at the nut and wider than standard at the 24th fret. Glad to hear you're enjoying your Alembics. |

my bass has arrived and i´m so happy! there are great differences between the epic and the elan i think....in many ways...but I like them both! the switch on the Elan really makes things happen to the sound! one Q: can you upgrade the Elan with Europe electronics? have what´s needed sent to Sweden to enable local tech to install? thanx from Sweden! |
