I have one of those and they are great, love them.

Absolutely not. It is very simple to do a test to check that the final unit is working automatically, it costs next to nothing, and the return cost of it not working when it comes out is very high. It's not even caring, it just down to the bottom line.

The wood is very soft and very easy to dent, I have dented mine in a few places, but to be fair it gets a lot more playing out than any of the others, so that isn't surprising.

The EHB is adjustable. My EHB1505 is 17.5 which is about the widest spacing I can do!

A lot more than with something basic like a guitar or bass. Probably a failure in one of the wires to the board

Having worked in the electronics industry, i find it inconceivable that that would be true for any actual company that has stayed in business for more than 3 months.

Like this you mean?

Not sure, mine is an iPhone, it can spell!

I looked at a video on the net about them and the guys one was 7.8lb

They were hard to get an expensive.

Often the way with gibsons at the end. I bought a Gibson EB5 2013 when Gak kicked them out cheap, had it about a year. Loved the sound, hated the string spacing and never could learn to love the look. One of the few basses I sold for more than I got it, so not all bad.

Its a bargain if they turn up!

I guess they go on the hope that someone isn't paying attention, you only need to sell one then you can throw the others away!

Change its language then it won't.

I would have had a firebird X if they hadn't bulldozed them all!

No, I never tried the glue thing. Never had any problem. Actually not true, once I used screws that were way too short and it fell out, but all the rest of them have been here for over a decade and not had an issue, and that includes some of the long reach ones. I do however have an inspection ever year or so to see if anything is looking odd, no issues yet

Well, that would be tempting if there was some kind of customs union with Germany

Yes, it is a function of your browser. What browser are you using?

Make sure you use long enough screws, and don't put it so far down that your pigeons can land on it

Gibson are doing fine now, this is a zombie thread from 3 years ago. Seem to be a lot of people joining to revive old threads at the moment!

The only reason that your battery can drain is that the negative terminal of the battery is being connected to the earth of the bass. The only place that the black wire from the battery should go is to the jack socket, but it seems like it is shorting elsewhere. Find that, and you solve the problem.

Not sure on the wiring there, but yes, the general idea if is a new problem started when you changed something, it is almost certainly the thing you changed. Generally the switching of the battery is done between the regular earth and the negative terminal of the battery, and i suspect what you connected to the bridge now connects those two where it didn't before. Not sure why the piezo wire is still there if you removed the piezo, maybe it is connecting something. The only place the battery negative should go is to the jack socket and not be connected to the earth until the plug is in.

Well, good planning to stop 8 years before the pandemic, if maybe a little over cautious. My last one was 4 weeks ago, and I think I got covid at it, I am not sure, I didn't do a test, it didn't sound like the right symptoms until people said what the symptoms of omocron was!

Well, I never knew that! I didn't even know about the electropop cover, which I expected to be bad and actually wasn't

Overall financially I think it isn't far out of balance. Which is handy, with only a few gigs!
