johnbiffa Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) Unusual EB3 from 69 as it has a bound fretboard which neither my 64 EB3 or 67 EB2 has. Also it benefits tome wise from the original mud bucker pick up placement as opposed to the early 70's In great condition and comes with a shaped case which is not the original, no neck breaks and in great condition for a 50 year old bass. EB3's appear to be fetching silly money now so this is something of a bargain for its condition and rarity Bought as back up for my 64 but rarely gets an outing so if you want to get that Andy Fraser or Jack Bruce tone ..................... Any trial in E Yorkshire using my Aguilar rig , could be personally delivered on A1/M1 corridor or NE free of charge Edited February 5, 2019 by johnbiffa 1
bassbiscuits Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 Wow that's stunning. Very Spiders from Mars! Loving the bound fretboard - never seen that before.
johnbiffa Posted February 2, 2019 Author Posted February 2, 2019 Thanks, it is unusual, must have been a custom order I think as it also has a nice fast slim neck, my 64 is a baseball bat but I've got used to it over many years. Spiders , Slade, Kinks there were many players but Jack and Andy are always the ones that spring to mind !!!!

johnbiffa Posted February 3, 2019 Author Posted February 3, 2019 Thanks, so it looks like the bound fingerboard was standard on the early models !
