Hmmmmm....cause for concern? davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 2187 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Wednesday, August 10, 2005 - 12:25 pm:    I think it's probably legitimate. cosmic Junior Username: cosmic Post Number: 19 Registered: 5-2005 Posted on Wednesday, August 10, 2005 - 1:35 pm:    Legitimate cause for concern -- or the sale is legit and nothing is wrong with the bass? davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 2189 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Wednesday, August 10, 2005 - 2:12 pm:    I think the sale is probably legit, and I think there is probably nothing wrong with the bass. If you are interested in the bass, you could probably email the original seller and get a first hand opinion. I don't know how much the color affects the value. Otherwise I think it's a nice bass at the buy-it-now price. I can't remember, if I ever knew, whether Elan electronics have one preamp or two; this could be a consideration with the P/J pickups. phys49 Junior Username: phys49 Post Number: 15 Registered: 4-2005 Posted on Thursday, August 11, 2005 - 7:29 am:    Apparently it just sold for $1200.

I kind of liked it. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 2193 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Thursday, August 11, 2005 - 2:25 pm:    Makes me think of Larry Graham <g>
