NBD Gibson EB 2014/5

[alembic1989]

I bought this bass new before Xmas..and decided it wasn't for me..after only 5 mins of playing.
I even have been trying unsuccessfully to sell it.
Yesterday I tweaked the action and tried playing it through my proper rig, and not through the tiny practice amp I was using.
Well how wrong can a guy be?
The bass blew me away!
I just didn't expect it to sound that good.....phenomenal in fact.
I think it was the high action, heavy strings, and type of strings that made me dislike it initially.
But after playing it for about an hour I was knocked out at the array of tones it has to offer..it really rocks!..and has some great soloing tones too....from a Gibson??
This is a keeper!
Really glad no one bought it!

Isn't that lucky that no-one bit? Glad you're getting along better now.

Gibson bass in "not crap" shocker, eh?

I'm glad you like it. I think the EB is a great undiscovered territory.

I think you're spot on....a little open secret.
