{"product_id":"859784","title":"Gibson VINTAGE EB-0F '63 Cherry","description":"Gibson's electric bass guitar debuted in 1953 (this model was later called the EB-1). With a wide variety of models ranging from violin-shaped and double-cutaway solid-body models to semi-hollow-body models, it has gained the support of many bassists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This time we have in stock the 'EB-0F', which was shipped around 1963. It's a model that incorporates the \"Maestro FZ-1 Fuzz Tone\" fuzz pedal, which was produced around the same time. The 'EB-0F' is an extremely rare model, as records show that only 265 units were produced over a four-year period starting in 1962.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【body】\u003cbr\u003e The total weight is approximately 3.7 kg. The body is made of mahogany. The body shape is the familiar double-cutaway design with a beautiful beveled contour, similar to the SG guitar. The cherry-colored top has faded, giving it a more mature look. Overall, there is some weather checking, belt buckle marks, a few dents, and tarnishing of the metal parts, which are commensurate with its age, but considering its age, it is in remarkably good condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【neck】\u003cbr\u003e The neck is a one-piece mahogany without a volute. The fingerboard is made of beautiful rosewood with a stunning grain. There are some scratches on the headstock, overall weather checking, minor dents, and tarnishing on the metal parts, but it remains in good condition, similar to the body. The tuners function well with little variation in winding. The nut has been replaced once. The frets show little wear and playability is good. The nut width is 43.4mm. It features a sturdy neck shape.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e [Electrical System]\u003cbr\u003e The bass itself has a simple control scheme with one pickup: master volume and master tone. The built-in FZ-1 has controls for the IN\/OUT switch (effect switch), ATTACK (amount of distortion), and OFF\/ON (effect volume). It is equipped with one EB model-specific humbucker pickup. The FZ-1 uses three 2N270 transistors, just like the compact effect pedals of that era. The control system parts, including the pickup, have been kept in their original condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The appeal of the old EB-0 lies in its unique, dense, and forceful woody low end. The attack is slightly rounded, and the midrange is prominent, so it doesn't lose its presence even in a trio or a band with just one guitar. Furthermore, the built-in Maestro FZ-1 fuses the rough texture characteristic of transistor fuzz directly into the bass sound. The circuit, which uses three 2N270 transistors, has a grittiness and wildness that is different from modern fuzz, and when you turn up the ATTACK, the harmonics burst forth, allowing you to venture into experimental psychedelic sounds reminiscent of the early 1960s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Included case: Gibson black tipboard semi-hard case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 3.7kg\u003cbr\u003e Body Material: Mahogany 1 piece\u003cbr\u003e Neck Material\/Scale Length: Mahogany 1 piece\/770.0mm (30inch)\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard\/Fret Marker\/Radius: Rosewood\/Pearloid dot\/304.8mm (12inch)\u003cbr\u003e Nut Width\/Fret Size: 43.4mm (replaced)\/2.1mm, 20 Fret\u003cbr\u003e Neck Thickness (1F\/7F\/12F): 23.8mm\/25.0mm\/25.6mm\u003cbr\u003e Pickup: Gibson EB Large Humbucker (31.1kΩ)\u003cbr\u003e *The DC resistance value of the pickup is measured after passing through the control section.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Heartman Vintage Guitars is a specialty store for vintage guitars and basses operated by Ikebe Musical Instruments.","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43297592639601,"sku":"859784","price":6447.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/VINTAGE_EB-0F__63_Cherry_01.jpg?v=1780397039","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/ko\/products\/859784","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
