Are you tempted? It might be the only one made. I've never seen or heard of one before. Anyone else??

EB-650, seems to me like a decent deal, pretty rare basses

I have one in red. Hulk no collect for fins.

QuoteTop is made from gorgeous exotic Peroba wood with mahogany back & neck with Curapay fretboard. Features Bartolini pickups, Grover tuners and gold hardware throughout. A singularly beautiful guitar.

Are those the "Smart Woods" ?

If it's hard to pronounce it must be smart wood.

Yes, I can't deny it. I always wanted to get a smartwood bass while you guys are caught in a forever time-warp slobbering over the umpteenth sixties TBird! ; - )

Interesting. 10,000 Maniacs and Steve G. are from my hometown. Over a 15 year period I only ever saw him play Guild Pilots on stage.
