What was wrong with the Buffet Elite?

About 30 years ago, Buffet brought out its very unusual...and expensive..Elite model. It was very light and thin-walled. -very pleasant to play and had a lovely resonant sound that projected very well. But it soon disappeared. Why? I suspect there were intonation issues and bad ones. Yet this is something that can usually be put right. Not even its designer/tester, Michel Arrignon, was using it after a couple of years. He went back to Buffet Prestige. Have any of you played or do any of you play the Elite?
