I can't believe I have to sell her but a Rogue calls. In extremely great condition is my 1990 Elan Plus 4 with what I have to say is the best burst I have ever seen. The front, back of not only the body and the head stock, but the back of the neck as well! Unheard of commitment to the art of instrument making. This bass has opened my eyes to what tone really is. The Europa controls are volume, pan, filter, Q switch, bass boost/cut switch, treble boost/cut switch.  
The quick tone switches are bass and treble and are not individual switches for the pickups. Each switch provides 6db boost, flat, and 6db cut.
Here are the specs from Alembic:
S/N 90H6047 - Info courtesy of Val...
1990 4 string long scale Elan bass  
Quilted maple top  
maple body  
ebony fretboard  
maple neck  
perloid oval inlays  
Elan plus electronics  
chrome gotoh tuners  
Tobacco burst finish  
completed 7/26/90  
I am including a generic hard case. The price is $1,600. I will consider shipping on the buyers dime. Send me an email for pricing but please, no overseas shipping, please. This is a Lower 48 sale only.
Want the bass but don't have enough cash? No worries, there is another way.
I will consider partial bass+cash trades for Leo Fender era G&L basses or a Steinberger XM-2 only, cash needed to be determined by your bass condition.

I have an L-5000 5 string and a mint fretless L-2000 that I would consider in a trade.
 
cheers
