Hello all,
I'd like to chime in as yet another proud church-playing Alembic person. I use my Elan 6 every Saturday for an hour long service. I've received nothing by praise (pun indended) from my fellow band mates, first when they see what a beautiful bass it is, and second when they hear the tone. I've found the 6 to indispensable. Of course, the low B comes in handy for making those big choruses stand out, but I frequently use my high C for melodies or playing chords. I can't think of a more appropriate instrument to bring to church!
