This Gibson EB-2 Bass was made in 1968 and still has its original orange label. This is a very nice-extra clean instrument. The neck is very straight, and the truss rod works fine. The walnut finish is near perfect with only a slight buckle rash, a few nicks and scratches, and a few minor "Gibson" finish checking issues. All the chrome parts are in place, and they show no corrosion. The case is an original yellow lined hard shell, and it is in equally nice condition. This Gibson EB-2 Bass is about as nice as they get.

We're frankly thrilled to have our first Seuf OF-16 Bass here in the store. Fueled by Lindy Fralin Vintage pickups with a Medium C neck, this sounds incredible with great textured tone and feels like it's been yours from day one. The relic job on this is also outstanding - Dave has given this his 'Played Hard' relic job so it's super comfortable and looks killer with actual finish checking and all (see detail photos). This is a Swamp Ash body with a nitrocellulose Blonde finish, with a Rosewood fingerboard on a Maple neck.
"This is our first bass from Seuf we have received and it is spectacular. The relic job on it is very cool and gives this bass a lot of personality, but where this bass really shines is in its tone. Lately, I have been really big on active basses, but this is the first bass in a long time that got me really excited to play a passive. I am also convinced the relic'ing truly does influence the tone of the instrument- it's not just for looks. Wearing down the finish on the body makes the frequencies more resonant and that definitely comes through when it is plugged in. Any player looking for that famous vintage Fender P bass tone, look no further. For once, you don't have to break your wallet to get a bass that sounds exactly like you'd hope it would." -Matthew K.
