I have one on consignment at bass NW, http://bassnw.com/Used%20Basses/alembic_elan_5_st_flame_maple.htm The action is very low, requires a light touch ... (might drop the price a little soon) |

Does that Elan come with a fold over hinge at the nut cos it ain't ever gonna fit that case otherwise "-). Crisp looking bass that one, I missed out on a 4 stringer on ebay this summer. All the best to you both. jazzyvee |

I think the picture is misleading. The bass is held in a stand by the head and is off the ground. Case is flat on the ground. It's one of them there "optical dillusions". |
