*FOLKS PLEASE READ THIS...I'VE HAD A FEW FOLKS POLITELY COMMENT ON JACK PLAYING A 66 SHORT SPACED EB3..PICTURES OF HIM PLAYING BOTH..RATS, NOT SURE.. EITHER WAY, 1ST YEAR AND IT'S BADASS!!!
Oh man… I can already feel the regret!! lol not sure I should be letting this one out of the lineup…but I’ve got a buddy to meet in Alabama to get well…. MORE BASSES…. So, help a brother out huh?? lol
Yes, this is a 1st issue 1st 1961 EB3 just like ole JB’s!!! (Jack Bruce). Now, the original pickup is still intact, however the black Bakelite cover was swapped with a 68 Gibson inscribed chrome cover… it had some pin striping done in the 70’s and folks.. I must say… it LOOKS BADASS!!! Pots and caps are original and folks… hold on….. the mini bucker has a F’n PAF sticker.. yes a legit Patent Applied For sticker just like the Bursts and others …. So F’n Gibson nerdy and cool!! Yess see pics. Frets are good with tons of life, the action is good to me and plays well. You might need to set to your liking or get it to a cat or kitten that can.. but it’s a playable axe just the way it sits. Absolutely no breaks, cracks or repairs… still sturdy and tank like!!! The varitone switch is wonky and probably needs to be replaced.. maybe. The original knob has been replaced. Weighs in at 7.4 lbs and feels even and comfortable over the shoulder. Folks, aside from the pickup cover and chicken head varitone knob..this EB3 is all original… it’s 1st issue, 1st year Jack Bruce specs and these fetch BIG COIN.. grab this one for a deal before it’s gone.. you’ve ALWAYS wanted one… here it is!!
Thanks for the interest.
