Brooks EB RBL

<< < (2/8) > >>

BTL:
That's beautiful!

34" scale?

On the SRB-1B, it looks like you had to modify the base plate and create a new ring.

Is that correct?

Basvarken:
Thanx guys.

Yes it's 34" scale.

And yes it's the SRB-1B . And yes I cut off the "ears" and made a pickup ring for it

Here's a pic of the pickup before I modified it



I chose three ply pickguard material(b-w-b) for the pickup ring. The white line is a nice little detail that goes well with the pearloid binding on the all black bass. And I even changed the height adjustment screws to black ones  8)

Rob:
Really nice.
I would be temped to swap out the truss screws for chrome or paint those back.

Highlander:

A Gibson may be good enough but a Brooks is better. Feel free to take that. Nice bass. I bet Gene Simmons would dig it too.
