I have an all maple Elan which has the Europa electronics on and those boost and cut switches really help tame that snap to the tone that the maple gives and also makes the most of it when  you need it. When I've used it live I found i needed the treble on cut most of the time and bass set to off. It gives me access to dramatic tone changes very quickly.  But I'm sure you will very quickly find what works for you.

Hi Pat,  
 
Since we just got off the phone a little while ago, you know that there isn't any black on your bass yet, but there should be any day now. I'm keeping an eye out for when I can share a new picture of the bass looking different in its next state of construction.  
 
Hope you get the hang of picture posting - I'm sure I made it sound harder than it is when we were talking about it.

See, See! The tauntings over the years have paid off. Let the opaque revolution continue! Congrats on a great instrument.

Seems quite a few of us have black alembics now. I know I'd always prefer a natural wood finish if I was going for a new build but I do love the look and playability of my Black Europa/Elan.  
Once the hardware is on this bass its gonna look regal.  
 
Great bass, I hope you get it soon.
