I had read the article about this bass in the Premier Guitar magazine mentioned. I tried contacting Brown's Guitar Factory by email to see about refinishing  my EB-0F, I never received a response.
I ended up having it refinish at Dave's Guitar Shop in Lacrosse WI.

I noticed that on their website (haven't been to the store in months). Odd that Brown didn't get back to you. Could it be that he only does work for retailers now?

Could be, I've never been in his store. B&B Organ is based in Fridley owned by Bill Brown, I believe they are brothers. Their dad owned Brown Music in New Ulm. Bill was selling his dad's Les Paul Triumph Bass a few years back.
