Well, just to keep you up to date. The Epiphone Ripper , maple body, neck and fretboard bass that I was so excited about, has been returned to GC.
The thread regarding that is here.

http://www.talkbass.com/threads/nbd-but-do-i-keep-it.1103144/

There was a huge amount of neck relief when it came home. After I adjusted it properly, I found that the bass needed a serious fret level job. If the bass had been perfect hanging on the rack with a price tag of what the total would have added up with the fret job, I would never have even picked it up.

So, I am back to playing my "red devil bass" in church on Sunday.

Hey guys, quick question...does anyone know the epiphone EB-O neck radius. I just picked one up, and defretted it. Now All I've got to do is put some rosewood veneer in and radius the board. Before buying a radius block, I'd like to know the radius. Thanks.

Also, I've found that the 3 point bridge has got to be the worlds worst design, so I'll probably replace it with a fender bridge.

Although the Epiphone website doesn't mention the radius, I think a safe bet would be a 12" radius, since basically all other models by Epiphone use a 12" radius fretboard...

I like the 3-point bridges and have absolutely no problem adjusting an intonating them...

Why would you install a Fender bridge, when Hipshot offers a direct replacement using the original mount points? You would know that it is placed correctly, plus they have all kinds of adjustments.

2 reasons: The hipshot bridge in my opinion is extremely unattractive. And I can't justify putting a 90 dollar bridge on a bass I spent 100 dollars on. I have no problem with sinking a ton of money into an inexpensive instrument, its just that I would have be playing it rather often, and I can't realistically see myself playing this bass often enough.

+1 on the Hipshot bridge... It may be a versatile adjustable bridge - but it is also an eyesore of astronomical proportions IMHO...

 

[offhand35]

I know the Hipshot bridge is pricey. I have not had a problem with the 3-point bridges on my EB-0's, or I may have switched over to them. I had not considered that some consider them unsightly. I don't.

 

[Nocturnal]

I don't mind the look of the Hipshot either, but it does look better on my RD than on my TBird.

2 Epi basses, and presently 3 Epi guitars yes I like Epiphone products

 

[ThaCoast]

What's not to like about Epiphone?

 

[Silver Blues]

Want a number?

 

[hillerup]

What's not to like about Epiphone?

Exactly!!!

I've got 10 basses and 5 guitars of theirs...

 

[ThaCoast]

My Dad stands by epiphone all the way. Why spend big buck for a gibson when you can get decent if not same/better quality for inexpensive. Even i won't pay the huge price tag of gibson just for the ska eof having a brand name.

 

[D0rk1n]

Partial bass cover attempt
Havok - Unnatural Selection.

Testing my new installed brass nut.
Gears and signal path:
Epiphone Toby Deluxe V - Darkglass B3K - Hartke Bass Attack - USB Guitar Link - Reaper

I used Jim Dunlop Tortex 0.88mm pick.

Direct Recording to PC no Amps and Cabs simulation plugin and No EQ plugin used on bass track.

The 2nd part has no bass track then fade out.

 

[Silver Blues]

Sounds good. I really like those Toby fives and kind of want one myself... but I'm broke . They have a very Annihilator-esque sound going on there, cool song.
