Great article.  Very interesting.

Haha. Not really a journalistic high point  :mrgreen:
But still cool enough because of the EB-2 and the Sunn.

EB-2s and Sunns are always of interest to me.

Much coolness all around!

That would have been a ball shaker.

I do love that classic cherry color on those 335-bodied instruments.

I guess I did snap a photo of it last summer when I dropped the EB0-F off for refinishing........

These were the only Gibson basses in his collection, with the exception of the original Thunderbirds displayed next to the Firebirds.

In actually have my own 200S basement find.....a mint head with DUAL matching cabs and covers!!
Got it from out in the state where SUNN was founded.

BTW......Premier Guitar should get wacked across their editorial foreheads with the Gibby Bass.....because THAT SUNN 200S Is NOT a 1967 !!!!!!!!!

Any SUNN guy knows that the original style grill cloth did not change over to the Fender style until later, approximately mid-1969. So, if this SUNN 200S in the photo IS all-original, it is no earlier than 1969.
