FS/FT 1965 GIBSON EB-3 PELHAM BLUE ORIGINAL CUSTOM COLOUR

in Basses £
£3995.00 1965 Gibson EB-3 in Pelham Blue, original finish, with faded lacquer making it more green in most areas. Some playing wear from the last 50 years. Original cheap rectangular case. Small hairline at headstock, not a break, has gone nowhere since I bought it 20 years ago. Very stable. Original mute still on, great sounding bass. Hardly ever played now, could do with decent strings and a setup, but vary playable as is. The perfect EB-3 sound. May take a short scale Epi EB-3 or a Gibson SG Bass in P/x more pics available.

    That's ridiculously cool. I can't afford it, sadly.

    Probably better in the Classifieds if you're selling it though :).

    Wow how cool is that! Surely this has @Bridgehouse pretty much inscribed in its dna?

    Lol - it’s a beauty for sure! I really like the EB-3’s and this one is a corker. 

    But, with current band needs I’ve had to spend my hard earned bass fund on a custom commission for a fretless 5. 

    If I had the cash tho....

    Thanks everyone!
    I'm just thinking though, a fretless 5?? What kind of world is this?? Isn't it still 1975?

    Well, if it makes you feel any better I picked up a classic old Marshall dynamic bass system head and 7410 cab today. Weighs the same as a small planet, and basically sounds like 1975 in a tolex box....

    Now you're talking! Would it fit in the back of my Granada Ghia Coupe?
