Epiphone Club

I have an Explorer bass I am working on, I have had it about 7 years now which is the longest I have ever owned a guitar (Even after losing it and buying it again after finding it on eBay).

I have previously owned other Epis. An EB0 which wasn't that great for me, my third guitar ever was an Accu-Bass which was great, but the crown was my old Jack Casady that I had to pawn to survive with the Explorer...

There's a sad story in there, actually, but I got the Exp' back in the end. Ah, hopeful triumph! I miss the JC terribly though.

So. Yes, I would love a club number!

#168 - Yok, but pics or it didn't happen! :D

Okay okay, I haven't any real recent ones of it but here it is after I thought it would be fun to add some dumb green trim...

It's going through some work at the moment so it won't look like that next time I post a pic...

EA-260.JPG I would have sworn that I had posted my Epi here; obviously not. Anyway, here's mine; '71 EA-260. Haven't converted it to a lefty yet; couple of other projects in line ahead of it. But it does play nice, and sounds good with the old flatwounds that are on it. A number, please? Oh, and I also have the matching EA-250 guitar, too. And it is a lefty.;)
 
I really like the sound of the One pup combined with the rounds. I don't play it as often as I ought to, but that's probably because I have the Jack and the Les Paul! The short scale takes about 60 sec to get used to, and it is more compact in overall size. Really no con's to report; there are some tonal limitations probably due to scale, but really an overall great instrument!
