1973 Gibson EB-4L (Long Scale) Bass – Natural Finish – Vintage SG-Style
Beschreibung:
Zum Verkauf steht ein seltener Gibson EB-4L aus dem Jahr 1973 in der begehrten Long-Scale-Ausführung. Die Datierung wird durch die CTS-Potis (1973) und die Seriennummer 89156X untermauert. Im Gegensatz zur Standardversion bietet dieser Bass eine Mensur von ca. 87 cm (34,5"), was für mehr Saitenspannung und Definition sorgt.
Zustand:
Der Bass befindet sich in einem ehrlichen Natural-Finish, das die Mahagoni-Maserung wunderschön zur Geltung bringt. Er hat moderate Vintage-Spielspuren, darunter ein Ding am Hals und die zeittypischen, oberflächlichen Lackrisse am Halsübergang (keine Brüche!). Die Elektrik ist original mit dem 3-Weg-Schalter für den Super Humbucker von Bill Lawrence. Die Potis laufen sauber, der Schalter arbeitet zuverlässig.
Specs:
- Baujahr: 1973 (Seriennummer 89156X)
- Farbe: Natural
- Hals/Korpus: Mahagoni, V-Profil
- Mensur: Long Scale (87 cm / 34,5")
- Gewicht: ca. 3,75 kg (angenehm leicht!)
- Zubehör: Vintage-Formkoffer (nicht original Gibson), größere Tolex-Fehlstelle am unteren Boden im Bereich der Zarge.
Ein charakterstarker Player mit dem legendären Gibson-Schub!
