Nice demo Flip. I particularly loved the sustain. Nice clear clean tones. Congrats again! ( and no, I have no idea when mine is coming home)

awesome bass man! that beauty has sustain for days! i love the versatility that she has, that banging Newsted sound and for a second i feel like i was able to hear a Justin Chancellor type sound he gets out of his Wal when you used all 3 pickups. thanks for the demo and can't wait for more :D

Sounds gorgeous FC, seriously gorgeous. I love the clean sounds. Seems like you have a keeper there. What a glorious Elan tone.
 
Elans are the business.
 
Hey Markus. I'm still loving your old bass. Have you bought any new ones lately?
