If the roadcase is more than 3 weeks (original quote) away from now, please cancel it. Also I don't want to wait too long for a standard case, if there's a longer (than 3 weeks) delivery time for it I'd rather take Jazzyvee's and have another roadcase build here in Holland along the way (for half the price and ready in a week) | ||

Roadcase is on its way here, should be on Monday or Tuesday. Your bass will be on its merry way to you next week. Yay yay! | ||

Got a new camera (Sony DSC-W380) to capture the herd in all its glory :-) Here's a digital panoramic view of my room:  Ugly sight… (the void between the Elan and the fretless "Orion") the rest in the pic is sheer beauty of course. :-) Now I need to work out how to take those crystal clear high res. pictures with this camera, in the meantime the "void" issue will be dealt with rigorously I hope? How about my request in post #1167 ? "Would love to see some pictures before shipping to verify all custom options made it to this monster" ;-) | ||

It's not here yet, cheese danish can still come my way :-) I guess I shouldn't be guessing but I guess it's a neat case? | ||

I'm afraid the pastry goes to New Jersy this time, though I'm still holding my breath. Did you get my reply Mica? Maybe the case fits so perfectly tight, they can't get the bass out for final inspection :-) | ||

NO WAY DUDE. MINE IS STILL IN RUBOUT! The Danish or Strudel is yours. It's about 2 years since I put in the order, so folks can use that as a gauge. There is something special about black finishes that takes more attention to detail I guess. But it won't be long now for you. Ride the lightning! | ||

My mistake, got the bet mixed up... (thought the "winner" had to give instead of take) Allrighty, looks like the pastry is going to Holland then... (still, still holding my breath) I'll collect it at your next European tour if that's ok with you :-) | ||

Got a quote for a Series II bass instead of tracking data... Pakjesavond gaat het niet meer worden ben ik bang... :-( We're running out of studio time, should I plea for some extra days or would that be a futile effort? | ||

dang dude his is pretty cool also, but i like your's because it's based off Jason's, but has some upgrades done to it for more tonal control, congrats Flip. i would love to have a 5 string, 3 pickup Elan almost exactly like yours(classic taper for me though) you lucky dog. hope that i'll be able to steal some of your ideas(as for the electronics) whenever i get a real job ;-). play her well, for all of our sakes :-) ~Taylor | ||
