I was hoping to find out some more information about the Epihone EB-3 5 string Bass that was manufactured in 2000 and displayed at NAMM.
1) How many were produced?
2) Where should I be looking if I wanted to obtain one?
3) Does Epiphone do custom orders like this? Could I get one made?
4) Why are they not being made anymore?
The SG line of bases is totally underrated. I have a late model Epi EB-3 (long scale) and the feel is awesome! I can only imagine the sounds I could get strangling that ultra fast neck with an extra string! I used to drool over the SG guitars and when I switched to the bass, I primarily used a 5-string. If I could get my hands on a 5-string EB-3, it would all be downhill from there.
