I found it in amazing condition because it remained unsold for 24 years with its original case, warranty certificates and tool bag. greetings raffo artswork99 Moderator Username: artswork99 Post Number: 1945 Registered: 7-2007 Posted on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 - 7:53 am:    Hi Raffo and welcome to the forum!

But that is just my estimate based on what I've seen basses like that sell for on ebay and the odd UK music store. However there is a new Elan bass in the UK Alembic Dealer's shop which has the body style of a Jazz bass but still has the elan electronics and neck http://home.btconnect.com/bassworld/photos/Custom%20Jazz%204%20Buckeyed%20Burl.jpg http://www.americanguitarsuk.com/bassshop/alembicB.php and it is on sale for £4395.00 Jazzyvee (Message edited by jazzyvee on January 28, 2014)
