Schnozzalee Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 I love it but not for the money, why change the EB3?? Or does this one balance properly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 But it's not an alternative shaped EB3. The pickups and electronics are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 [quote name='Matt P' post='1221456' date='May 5 2011, 07:42 PM']wow, what are they made of? do you think they'd respond well to having all the finish stripped off? (then a nice tv yellow or cherry red) i wonder if one of those could be de-glittered and then pimped to make a great stage bass. (i'm rather fond of shorter scale basses) Matt[/quote] I believe the neck & body are mahogany. The top is a laminate of pearloid similar to that used for pickguards and toilet seats. As it is bound, I'm not sure how thick the layer is or how easily it could be removed. Its already a great stage bass and thomastic JF324s fit perfectly I actually have two of these basses hanging up on wall, plus a matching guitar - only one of the basses is mine, the other bass and the guitar belong to my daughters. Strangely the guitar was made in china whereas the basses are indonesian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Valdemar Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I quite like it, but it would be ten times better if it had authentic pickups on it, i.e. not modern Tbird pickups hidden under the old-style covers. Also, you know the price is going to be comical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
