By the way, Nice EB-0. Congrats on acquiring the best body design ever.
Yea, the grain on this one I like quite a bit. Not a fan of the factory 3 point bridge but otherwise it’s a fun bass to play.
It’s definitely mine.
Thanks! I finally took the time to fix the ferrules too today. One didn't go perfectly flush but as long as the bridge stays in place I'm happy!
There's probably .5mm - 1mm of lift on the bridge. So it does appear the ferrules have moved forward by about .5mm overnight. I'm okay with this. It's not ideal but the important part is that I've prevented potential damage and can re-re-seat them later.
I am VERY late to the party, but I love ALL of my Epiphone instruments and I just did exactly what the fist post described.
I am not a fan of most Epiphone Basses. I own an Accu-Bass (which I love and is slowly becoming my main bass) and, last year, I had the opportunity to play a Thunderbird.
I was impressed with the Thunderbird, but not enough to purchase it, at that time.
So, even though it looks like this club is kinda "dead", I'd like a number and I promise to do what I can to add to the discussion.
TYIA!

Welcome! As for the club, well, I wouldn't say dead, just quiet. It gets louder now and then.
Howzabout a photo of your Accu-Bass. You mentioned "ALL" of your Epiphone instruments, so what other ones do you have?
I have four Epiphone Les Pauls, the "Goth" V, The Tony Iommi SG, the Accu-Bass, and a 2001 Demon (pretty rare).
I messaged you, privately to cover all photo requests (all photos were taken the same day).
EDIT: I neglected to mention the guitar in my Avatar here is the (Damn! I forget the artist's name) Dave Rude maybe ... Epiphone flying V which had to be sent back because it was damaged upon receipt.

I've been very lucky with a modicum of knowledge thrown in. That 2001 Demon was an absolute steal. The Accu-Bass was a pleasant surprise (I saw it for $150 in a local used shop). It really has earned its cost times over.
They all sounded great. I'll just take a guess and say the second one was the Ibanez, but just a total guess (brighter sound).
