Due to your avatar, I now apparently really want an EB-1 style violin shaped bass. Dammit. Had enough GAS already.
They're out there if you want one. Just give in because your life is meaningless without one, at least that's how I feel since buying mine. Cheers!
Well, mainly I dig the body shape, and I like that unlike Hofners, it's solid-body (to the best of my knowledge). Really I want a bass with that body, but 32" or 33.25" scale, with two pickups (hot bridge pickup, lower output neck pickup).
The rig he seems to use most often is two 2x15 cabs powered by two 70s solid state Sunn amps (I can't remember which models).
Solid State? Must be cause it's spring that the pansies are blooming' around here! Analog tube overdrive or die! And yes the Eb1 is solid with a mudbucker that can't be denied and will slay all those in it's path with face melting bass. Phew! Time for me to jam!
CL sometimes it feels like your compensating for something your not telling us. Are you below average height?
What is considered average height these days? Huh 5' 10" for a white American says Wikipedia http://elliebryan.bandcamp.com She came up when I searched mouth bow on YouTube, kinda interesting solo folky stuff
