Gibson Basses / 1957 Gibson EB-1 - Mod Question [Pic Link Update]
« on: October 22, 2019, 06:56:15 PM »
Group,
I assume the general consensus about this, but figured I would put it out there...
I have a 1957 Gibson EB-1 that I am considering refinishing like Jack Bruce's EB-1.
I have all the original parts with the exception of;
*Pickguard
*Control Cover
*Input Jack Plate
*Truss Rod Cover
The body is well worn, it also is without a broken headstock.
So the mod would include; removing the finish and giving it a cherry finish, installing different tuners (enlarging the tuner holes) and adding a Schaller bridge.
Thoughts...
