ead Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 (edited) Hi folks I have always loved the look of Gibson EBs, possibly/probably influenced by some of my favourite bassists using them, but I have been able to find 'that' bass. Not easy to find a luthier who offers them either, however I noticed a build by Alex at AGH and asked him if he would make me something similar and here we are. Specs in brief are: Rosewood top over a 5-pc maple wenge neck through with cherry wings, 32" medium scale. Lower horn shaped to suit me so somewhat asymmetrical. Artec Mudbucker with series parallel switch and a Thunderbird style bridge pickup. V/V/T controls. Gotoh and BadAss harware (mostly because they were in my spares drawer). Sounds mega!

Len_derby Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 (edited) Lovely looking bass. It has a slight vibe of the Warwick Jack Bruce Signature bass about it, too. To my eyes anyway. 😊 Edited July 9 by Len_derby 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazed Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 (edited) Looks good that. Like the slight offset look of it and that lovely rosewood. Edited July 12 by Dazed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
