Really nice EB-2D
« on: July 05, 2022, 04:22:54 PM »
Beautiful 1968 EB-2D on Reverb

The guy who bought the same bass twice — first in 1977 and again in 2023

It might be the picture, but I have seen much more vibrant sunbursts than this one on EB-2s.
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

Very nice!
I actually like this burst more than the ones with more red in it.

Nice! I have the exact same bass in cherry. I paid WAAAAAAAY less for it than that!

There's no such thing as gravity, the earth just sucks!!

That was a steal then!
The price of the one on Reverb isn't outrageous at all.

Same here. This combination is my favorite Gibson sunburst. Reminds me of my first guitar, a '59 Melody Maker.
