EB-0 CH : Short scale bass

11 years ago

Fantastic value for money. Excellent build quality though the bridge design (common to all EB/SG basses) is ridiculous. Bought this to defret as there are not many affordable short scale fretless guitars out there. Defret was easy (frets not glued in) and once I had shimmed the neck a little action was perfect for use with D'Addario Chromes. Tone options are limited but acceptable at this price point - and DiMarrzio do a drop-in replacement pup (the Model One) if you want to get away from that "mudbucker" Gibson sound. Added a "Mod-Bar" (available on eBay) for a few dollars to get over the problem of the string silk coming over the saddles once the intonation is set. Fits into the nicely priced Fender Urban short scale bass gigbag perfectly.
