Well, I first tried one at the Olympia show in March and I really liked it and pretty much knew I'd get one if the opportunity arose.
I then had a go on TheGreek's at the bass bash and I liked it.
I then saw one when I was killing time in Birminham before a gig last month, but they said it was £299 and it was just on closing time.
ebay had a 20% off offer earlier in the week, which took it to under £200, so I bought it.
I don't know if that's flavour of the month or what.
I've got a TE graphic amp and 1x15 & 2x10 cabs, so it kindof fits.
For me the Elf seems to be what it says on the tin.
