(Originally written by Rigoletto/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
Gibson EB3 made in the USA in 1973

Neck and bridge pickups, each with volume and tone controls plus 4-way varitone selector with presets.

Typical Gibson neck which I find very pleasant.

Same finish as an SG guitar, good manufacturing quality and sturdiness...

UTILIZATION

The neck is great and the access to the upper frets is perfect.

The guitar is made of massive mahogany so its heavy...

Super sound for blues and rock.

I currently use it with a 35-watt Hartke and it already sounds great.

SOUNDS

This bass guitar is quite versatile and it offers many sound possibilities.

But it's not ideal for slapping... It was born to rock!

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using it for a short time only but I'm very happy with it and it makes a great collector's instrument... and also a good investment: it's better to have one than a savings account

Much cheaper than a Fender Collector's and more rare.

It's truly a great bass.
