Hi, I've replaced my much loved and worn Rickenbacker 4001 with a 1989 Elan 5-string.  I bought it in the US on the way back home to New Zealand.  It's magnificent - a worthy successor to the Rick!
 
Anyone else in NZ with an Alembic?

Wow- beautiful Alembic.  I'm in NZ as well (Hamilton), where are you?  
 
I'm the proud owner of a  5 string Rogue (http://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=8562) which I had shipped over from the States.  I'm an American living here, but it's home now and has been for over 3 years now.
 
I LOVE Elans- Yours is gorgeous.

Welcome Grant, a very beautiful bass you have. Ricks are great too, your taste in basses is excellent!

Scha-weeet bass!  I've always liked Elans. I played a Ric myself for many years before my journey to Alembicland.
 
Congrats and welcome aboard, Grant!
