Only 5 shipped in 1973...

I don't remember seeing this in Ze Kollekshun

You know He doesn't kollect for fins... between that fin and the control plate it really looks like a proto SB, just with better hardware.

Interesting, even if not my bag.

I haven't seen one of those before. He'll have to have one if he doesn't already.

He who shall not have two-fins...?

It's not just a different fin. It's a bridge model between the 72-style EB-0 and the SB.

The banana basses cousin the plantain?

That looks like an EB I could love...

I agree! I have never seen this bass, always something new.

I am a beaten man - no, I don't have one like that though I should. Those alder wood EBs are a rarity of mythical proportions, this is the bigfoot of Gibson basses! Blurry pictures in catalogs

- that is all I had ever seen of it, but now we have it before us in full mud-a-buckin' banana splendor!!!

Contrary to what some people in some forums sometimes say, SBs are fine basses.

I am a beaten man - this is bigfoot! Blurry pictures in Washington State.

Contrary to what some people in some forums sometimes say, Bigfoot is real

I just had to edit this a little for you......... Washington is on your mind

Lol, while I'm reading this, my office stero is blaring Blondie's One way or another, what a coincidence ...

You should wax more frequently...

True, Bigfoot, Washingtonian or not, would have a hard time getting a job with the Nasty Habits. $:-\$
