I remember that bass from Rumbleseat now that you mention. They get a lot of flak here and in previous forums for being so darn expensive, but they have a nose for rarities. Like my pelham blue Grabber with black finished maple neck AND board. That cost me 1.500 bucks way back - a steep price for a Grabber - but I've never seen anything remotely like it again.

Beautiful...  8)

It was a white EB2 that I missed out on (to Bruce oxton) shortly before I got the Tequilabird...

Still would like to get one...

Still got no money... so what's new...

Thanks. That's the group I was thinking of. They're all beautiful but the white sure stands out.

Like Kenny the white one reminds me of Bruce Foxton immediately too!

"You never forget a great bass, a great wine and of course a great piece of **s!"

**s: ebs? Never liked the chrome grilles on those amps.
**s: bus? A magic one?

In Canada, EB 2s and Rivolis grow in the wild as the above picture amply proves. No wonder with all the maple there ...

After I finish the 4005 and M-85, my EB-2 in white is next!  That bass is an inspiration.
