Gaolee Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Very nice! The EB-2 is one of my favs! Thanks! It's in great shape, with the original finish completely intact. Before I got it in about 1982, it lost its pickguard, baritone switch, mute, and the bridge pickup is a DiMarzio One, but it looks great and sounds like armageddon when I want it to.

Beate Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Well, You asked for it. From left to right: my Vester Witch (34"), one of the few fretless basses of this type, modded with better PUs, fretboard coated with polyurethane (by me). my 5-String V (32"), semi hollow, neck through, Katalox fingerboard - it needs a different bridge and ideally geared cello tuners. the Epi EB-0 (30.5") i bought for my son 2 years ago. He doesn't need it anymore because he now plays an explorer bass. Slightly improved in tone by replcing the tone pot by a no-load pot.

Versatile Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Thanks it really is a versatile bass, I have it strung with flats right now for that 60s style thump. It does look and sound the 'Bees Knees', came very close to getting one recently...I still might.... :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beate Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Well, more from the Gibson Group - another black beauty, the Epi Explorer i bought for my son last summer: Slightly modified: safety strap pins, one added to the neck near the 15th fret beneath the A string - now the beast is well balanced. Really nice guitar. Beate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaolee Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Not a Gibson, quite. It's an Epi with a bolt-on neck, but here it is in action. Paper mache Darth helmet defeats bass face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basshole Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Thanks Guys, You should see the Ric in real light. It seriously TV yellow from the nitro oxidizing. The EB bass has checking over every single inch of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lungimsam Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Nice basses, everybody! Here are my basses. No Gibsons yet, but hope to add an SG bass asap: Flower bass routed and '62 pup installed. Sounds like a '62 now. Old Granpa tone.: In bed: Bass VI body: In Bed: Bridge closeup. With the mute, I can totally mute the strings for thump, or slightly mute for a sitar sound: '62 reissue. Very flat neck and so comfortable to play.: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what year it is. My 80's eight string Washburn My home made bass I think that's all of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrNylon Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I've got an American Standard Jazz Bass, Olympic White on order. I'll post photos when it's in. till then, CYA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaolee Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I just found a p-bass which will probably come home with me soon. It's a MIM '50s reissue, with a chunky, wide neck. It will join the EB and 'Bird, since it will be completely different from either one of them. I have never owned any kind of Fender instrument, ever.

MrNylon Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I've to go with the J Bass. The P Bass is just a little to big in the neck for my fingers to cleanly reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaolee Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I've to go with the J Bass. The P Bass is just a little to big in the neck for my fingers to cleanly reach. The big fat neck is why I like it. This specific one has a chunky neck, more like a Gibson than the usual Fender, so it's got a thicker profile as well as a wider fretboard. It is very different from anything else I own, otherwise there would be no point, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
