{"product_id":"865894","title":"Gibson VINTAGE EB-0 '72 Cherry","description":"Carefully selected consigned items (sales on your behalf)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 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 latest arrival is an EB-0, a single-pickup model shipped around 1972. It's a guitar that incorporates specifications from the 1970s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【body】\u003cbr\u003e The total weight is approximately 4.2 kg. The familiar SG-shaped body is made of mahogany. The newer bodies from the 1970s feature an elbow contour and body contour, and the pickups are positioned closer to the center. It originally had a cherry color finish, but it has faded to the point where it looks like mahogany brown at first glance. The cherry color remains vividly in the cavity and under the pickguard. Weather checking, small dents, and tarnishing of the metal parts are visible, giving it a wonderful vintage instrument feel. The wood damage near the output jack has now been properly repaired. The bridge cover is missing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【neck】\u003cbr\u003e The neck is made of 3-piece mahogany, and the fingerboard is made of rosewood. It has a 30-inch scale and 21 frets. There is some weather checking around the headstock and neck joint, as well as minor dents, paint chips, and tarnishing on the metal parts, but it is in relatively good condition. The tuners are fairly evenly wound and function well. The frets and nut show only slight wear, and playability is good. The nut width is 41.7mm. It features a relatively firm neck shape.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e [Electrical System]\u003cbr\u003e The controls are a simple master volume\/master tone. The pickups are the original EB series pickups. This is a new version where the pickup position has been moved from closer to the neck in the old specification to closer to the center of the body. The volume potentiometer and tone capacitor have been replaced.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e With its mahogany body, 30-inch scale length, and large EB humbucker pickups, this guitar boasts a thick, full low-mid range. Compared to the older version with the pickup positioned closer to the neck, the more centrally placed pickups give the low end a slightly tighter definition, while the moderate midrange presence and core tone create a more defined sound. When fingerpicked, you'll enjoy a thick, sustained tone, and when played with a pick, you'll experience a powerful sound with just the right amount of attack.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e *Please select strings designed for short scale guitars.\u003cbr\u003e Accessories: Gibson black tipboard case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 4.2kg\u003cbr\u003e Body Material: Mahogany 1 piece\u003cbr\u003e Neck Material\/Scale Length: Maple 3 piece w\/volute\/770.0mm (30inch)\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard\/Fret Marker\/Radius: Rosewood\/Pearloid dot\/304.8mm (12inch)\u003cbr\u003e Nut Width\/Fret Size: 41.7mm\/2.5mm, 21 Fret\u003cbr\u003e Neck Thickness (1F\/7F\/12F): 22.2mm\/24.2mm\/26.0mm\u003cbr\u003e Tuner: Schaller M4S Bass Tuner, chrrome\u003cbr\u003e Pickup: Gibson EB Large Humbucker\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":44231220428913,"sku":"865894","price":1287.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/865894_01.jpg?v=1787481711","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/products\/865894","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
