Nope. She gets around on it great.

She's gonna check for me but I'd be dollars to wooden nickels they're the same given the neck pickup, bridge, and knobs are identical. The bottom plate uses standard metric threads which come in the box with the hipshot. I literally turned the old plate around, moved two screws (two of them...

I've actually dealt with this! Turn the bottom plate around, get a new Hipshot two point bridge, and slap it on top. You're good to go. Sorry, the girlfriend has it at her place and her camera isn't the best.

Has anyone ever replaced the bridge pickup in their EB-3 with a Thunderbird pickup? They look like they could be surface mounted without issue.

A question I'm sure gets asked all the time, but this thread is pretty massive. Is anyone other than Gibson/Epiphone currently producing and EB shaped bass? If so, who?

If I could pick your brain, and anyone else who'd be inclined to chip in, I've actually got a few more questions. I love the Supertone design. I've got it on her 67 Kalamazoo, and both her 70's Japanese EB-0 and EB-3 clone. Will it fit on the 71 Slothead without having to drill and fill new...

I've done several (probably too many given I never end up charging anyone) headstock repairs with Titebond and always had good luck. I'm hoping they did the same here. The seller unfortunately seemed a bit grumpy so I'm a touch reticent to ask until I have it in hand lol. I appreciate all the...

Thanks guys. I went ahead and bought the tuners. $160 for vintage tuners that might be junk was a hard pill to swallow, but I'm going to give it a try. If the headstock decides to break off again, I'll likely take your advice and either rebuild it entirely or do the veneer. If anyone has...

Just bought VINTAGE 1971 GIBSON EB-3 SLOT HEAD BASS HUSK - REPAIRED HEADSTOCK | eBay for my girlfriend (her first Gibson, but her sixth or seventh EB like bass). Does anyone know of replacement tuners that will work on this? I'm not sure of the necessity of them going all the way across the...

My apologies, I don't think I didn't make myself as clear as necessary. I purchased the neck online and have yet to receive it, so I don't have dimensions. I was just hoping someone knew off the top of their head. The dimensions don't seem to be published anywhere on line that I can find...

I've got a vintage Gibson Kalamazoo KB-1 Bass neck and I was wondering if anyone knew what it would otherwise fit on? Fender bodies? Gibson/Epiphone bodies? I appreciate the assistance.
