Like the guitar, the SG bass has been one of rock's defining instruments. This reproduction is true to the Gibson original—light, fast, and loaded with a Sidewinder humbucker and a mini-humbucker to give it tonal power, and a set neck to give it the sustain that made the original famous. Limited lifetime warranty.
I went up to the store in serch of a new bass to replace my old beaten up one. i was looking around when i came across the EB-3 SG. from fist glance it looked like a nice bass. a nice replica of the origional Gibson. i picked it up to play it and found that it was not as great as i though..the action wasnt to good and the neck seemed very thin twards the top, pushing the strings together and making it had to hit one string at a time. the sound to it is very rich but alittle tinny. i think this bass would be ideal for someone who has short fingers or trouble reaching the E string. the price is great for what you are getting, but i honestly would not buy this for myself.
I own a fender precision bass that I love and play all the time, my volume control on that broke so now i had a reason to get a new bass. At first I was a little skeptical about the EB-3, but when i went to a store to play it my first reaction was WOW!! The pickups soumd great, the action is amazing, and forget about the looks.. it is one sweet lookin bass guitar. Looks graet sounds great, its for a great price BUY It!
I bought this bass about a year ago. After spending time with it over the last year, I have to say that this has to be the most amazing bass for the money I've ever seen! Sure, it looks so amazing that people always compliment it's appearance after shows, but it sounds just as amazing. You get a great range of tones, and you can feel the power of this bass in a way that feels incredible. It's reliable, durable (Mine looks absolutely new still), and delivers beyond expectations. I can't describe all the aspects that make me love it, so you'll have to try it out for yourself. That being said, to make this a good review, I have to point out two relatively minor details that may annoy some potential buyers. First, it's heavier than it looks, and the way the strap holds on to the body along with the weight of the neck means you have to be holding on to the neck at all times, or the entire thing rotates towards the floor. Though, this is true of a lot of basses. Just keep it in mind if you're used to a lighter bass like I was before transitioning to the SG. Second, those beautiful open gear tuner knobs are great, but because they're so large, they can move around more easily than most, so this tends to mean you'll have to re-tune your bass every other time you put it down. This is avoidable with a good case, or just being careful with them. The best advice I can give would be to visit a guitar center, and see if they have it in stock so you can test it out and make sure you like the feel of it. If you're comfortable with it, I have to recommend you buy it.
