alembic1989 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 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!

Billy Apple Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I'm glad you like it. I think the EB is a great undiscovered territory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
