Gibson missed their chance doing a Jack Bruce Reissue EB-1. That is a short scale solid body bass icon! They could use the same pickup as the SG RI, 460 Schaller bridge and working tuners and they would have a great sounding bass. And they could do a few carved maple top variations and double pickup versions for "GOWs"

You never know, it could happen. Jack's involvement would be doubtful, though, since he's a Warwick endorser.
There was a short-lived Epi EB-1 reissue a few years back. It had a strange looking matte finish. gweimer owned a fretless one for awhile and IIRC did some extensive mods to it. The only ones I saw in stores were set up so badly they were hardly playable.
