A dangerous combination

Recommended Posts

I was suffering from the temptations of a dangerous combination of boredom, too much alcohol, the internet, and a credit card last night. The rest of this is arriving tomorrow in the form of a brand new Gibson EB 4 bass. Two humbuckers, Babizc bridge & a full scale set neck for the price of a Mexican P bass has to be good value. If it arrives on time, I'll gig it tomorrow night!

My attempt to cut back on the number of basses I own is not going to plan!

My theory is you need the time pressure of immediacy to acquire new basses before they go. You can sell any time, no pressure.

Good work. I've always loved the look of the EB3 and fancy I'd play/sound just like Andy Frazer if I had one.

The EB4 is a completely different animal, long scale, different shaped body, seems to have been around a few years but not caught on. I searched on this forum and got zero hits (maybe I'm just no good at searching!).

Looks like this, but mine should be in sunburst: http://www.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/2017/USA/EB-Bass-4-String.aspx

I can feel your anticipation for tonight's gig. I hope it goes well for you.

Even if the bass doesn't get to you in time, I am looking forward to your NBD photos.

Cheers, It'll be a Gibson gig either way as I'll take my Thunderbird whether the EB arrives or not.
