Of the two, I'd go with the one with the dark fretboard. And I'd probably go with black, closed, pickup covers.Was going through my configurator folder and I came across a couple of Cazpar builds that I really liked after building in the configurator...Maybe after summer I might order one.

Hello people, is the elwood L smaller that the regular elwood (or standard jazz)?
That's what I thought too… 19mm is just way too wide for my playing style.From the pic I thought spacing might be 17.5MM, killer build.
I like the hollow body and second Blue's vote for the darker fretboard. The white pup covers are growing on me

Same body size and the regular Elwood, the L means it is chambered and thus lighter. It is 100 Euros more.
It appears you are right. Apparently the L basses are a tad thinner as well. Explained a bit in this video.I used to own a 5-string Elwood L. The shape is definitely different and the body slightly smaller than the regular version.

FWIW I put an Elwood 5L back to back with am Elwood 4 and the body size difference is very minimal (to me)
My goodness!My 6 string is ready! Only took a bit more than 2 months. Much faster than I expected.
