Description

The EB-3 is a killer bass from Gibson through the sixties and seventies. The bass is an SG body with a large humbucker in the neck position and mini-humbucker in the bridge. The four way switch offers great variety in tone selection and four volume and tone controls offer further fine tuning. Coming in at a very comfortable 30.5" scale length, the instrument is comfortable and compact to play. The comfort is further exemplified by the thick neck and large tuners. This particular instrument is a factory second, has two broken saddles, solidly repaired neck joint and one bent tuning peg. The bass plays great and shows wear on its body and fretboard in a few places.

Comes with non-original gig bag.
