francois.b Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) Hi all, I'm selling my gibson eb3 from 1972. It's all original and it's only missing the bridge cover and the original hard case. It's a rosewood fretboard over a 3 pieces of maple short scale neck. The headstock have been pro repaired (see pictures below). The body is made of mahogany. Electronic is all original, and works perfectly. It's in overall good condition, neck is straight, frets are in good shape, small dings on the body but nothing serious. If you want some close pictures just send me a PM. Bass will be shipped with a non original flight case (but fit the bass perfectly), and could be ship all over the E.U. Last thing the price, I'm asking 850£/1050€ + shipping fees. Edited June 1, 2012 by francois.b
dannybuoy Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Nice bass - what happened to the headstock, did it snap off? If so looks like a good repair, can't see any evidence!
francois.b Posted May 31, 2012 Author Posted May 31, 2012 Thanks danny. I think it actually did snap off. Job was (perfectly) done like 20/25 years ago.
jwlkr Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 I hate this so much! I always wanted an eb3 and recently bought an limited run sg. Ah such is the way of the market place. Stunningly cheap price.
francois.b Posted June 1, 2012 Author Posted June 1, 2012 Thanks jwlkr ! Too bad you've just bought a new one Enjoy your eb3 they are trully under rated bass.
francois.b Posted June 1, 2012 Author Posted June 1, 2012 Oops, i thought i already say this in my descrpition, but appenrently no. So yes it is the short scale version.
dannybuoy Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 I hear it's rare to find one this old where the headstock [i]hasn't[/i] snapped off, so don't be put off by this people! Some more pics of the side of the neck near the repair would be a good idea though.
francois.b Posted June 1, 2012 Author Posted June 1, 2012 I'm gonna post more pictures this week end.
francois.b Posted June 9, 2012 Author Posted June 9, 2012 I'm open to trades + cash. I'm searching stuff like an akai deep impact, a 90's ri or even better an original danelectro longhorn, silvertone 1444, fender bass VI mij, fender bottom master...
