The Official Epiphone Accu-Bass Club

OK, I did some digging several times and did not find a club specific to Accu-Basses. If there is already an Accu club, please merge this thread into one of the others.

In case you didn't know -- I'm sure many of you do -- the Accu-Bass is nothing more than Epi's Precision.

If you have an Epiphone Accu-Bass, you are free to join the club. If you have some other kind of Precision copy, there are better clubs than this one.

Post pics if you got 'em.

Here's my 1997 Accu.

i know, no pics, no bass.

but my first bass was an Epi Accu. all black, maple, matching pointy headstock. it served me well throughout the years, and is what i properly learned on. a very fine bass considering when it was made (late 80's/early 90's) and that it was a budget model. only thing that i'd change on it now is the pickup. the bridge on it (with those weird rounded saddles) was pretty hefty.

i eventually gave it away to an ex who was moving cross country, and moved on to other basses.
 
Hey guys, was thinking of picking up an accu-bass, but im not sure if it is an accubass. Heres a pic:

If it is, what do you guys think is a good price? Appreciate, hopefully i'll be a member in a couple of days.

That's exactly like mine (only mine's a lefty). I paid $90 for mine and it's about worth that.
