Alembic Elan 1990 4 string - a little market research wanted

[Undertone]

Hi,

Anyone know how much I should be paying for a used 1990 Alembic Elan 4 string bass in good condition in Europe / UK please? (with Q switch) These used to be between the Essence & the Rogue/Europa in the Alembic range.

Thanks

I own one of those basses and my view is that in excellent condition, you should expect to pay up to about £1400 max, I think you should be able to get one between £1000 and £1200 if it's been a working instrument with some bumps and bruises.

Many thanks.
