I put up another one: http://soundcloud.com/hieronymous-seven/minus-prolegomenon

Still the EB-2, but this time through a Crowther Prunes & Custard. I've never been able to get a sound like this again! One of those special moments...

I put up a couple of more old tracks featuring distortion-drenched mudbucker, this time my old Melody Maker:

https://soundcloud.com/hieronymous-seven/philippe-f-oscillo-mix

These were probably recorded around 2005 or so. In addition to the Z Vex Woolly Mammoth fuzz, it's also going through my MF-104 Moogerfooger Low Pass Filter. This was my favorite combo for a long time!

Gnarly jams bro!
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

I like the idea of those adjustable bone saddles.

Yeah, and it's a lot easier while recording in the studio (or at home)!

Have all these tracks together in one place on soundcloud:

https://soundcloud.com/hieronymous-seven/sets/fuzzy-gibsons

Over 30 minutes of fuzzy Gibsons! Everything is either the EB-2 or the Melody Maker, except for Kha-Tess Part 4 which is the Les Paul Triumph.

I'm not as familiar with a Melody Maker, but I do like the deep, mellow, muddy sound of an EB-2.  Great sounding bass, IMO.  Maybe not modern, but I couldn't care less.  I like it.  Great music, too.
