Title: 1990 Alembic Europa/Elan check
Post by: Paul1993 on February 21, 2021, 01:40:13 PM

Hello everyone, i am Paul and i am new on this forum.
I have a very beautiful Alembic for sale, which i bought as an Europa model, but which has an H for Elan serial number. Since i am selling, i would like to know what it is: Europa or Elan. It has Europa electronics.
Thank you very much.

It's an Elan, as a Europa would have a U in the serial number. The electronics package is known as Elan Plus, IIRC. The drill pattern for Europa electronics is differrent too (relative positions of the pots and switches).
