Gibson Basses / Re: 60's Black EB-2?

The serial number puts it as a 66 or 68, and the tuners and especially the bridge are 66. I believe there was a different bridge by 68. And yes, black was never offered on the eb2's. I suppose it could have been a custom order but I imagine that the model # writing right above the serial # on the orange label would tell the whole story. Interesting that the label picture doesn't include that! Mine is labeled as eb2c (cherry.) And, as Dave pointed out, the stamped serial # on the back of the headstock is missing. Almost certainly a re-finish but a good looking bass none the less!
