henry norton Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Does anyone know where I can get replacement pickups for a Gibson EB-3? I know DiMarzio do a neck replacement (unfortunately in black rather than a bright metal) but I'm completely stuck on the mini humbucker. Any ideas?

Telebass Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Erm, actually, they probably are! However, check out offerings from Artec in Japan. They certainly make some Gibson replacements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Foxen Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I might be getting the Allparts neck one in a P bass, if someone buys some of my stuff for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
