Hey, All:

This beauty just arrived today. Sounds amazing, although the round wound strings are ripping up my sensitive fingers :crying: Gonna drop some half rounds on her soon. Love the tone, though, and the fit and finish are great for such a cheap bass.

Anyways, the PO's pic, my Allen Woody Rumblekat with crazy figured wood . . .

My two Embassies!

Red one is a 2006, modified with a 0.033uF Orange Drop, CTS volume pot, a DIY (and a big hassle) ebony thumbrest, new knobs and a set of Dean Markley SR2000s, 47-107.

Black one is a 2005 (best year IMO), Allparts thumbrest and bridge cover, 40-95 Chromes.

Both are amazing. Astounded they discontinued these.

I've just got the ubiquitous EB-0. I brought it to the practice space along with my 5 string a few weeks ago, the 5 is tuned A standard with the thickest strings I could find. The Epi has the stock strings, still pretty new.

The 5 started acting up. The show must go on and all... tuned the little sucker down to ADGC. Used a Behringer bass DI pedal to cut the mids and it does a decent Fieldy impression. It would be funny if it wasn't for the sad part. The guys prefer it to the 5 string, which cost 20X what the Epi did.
