Forgot about these guys.

Preamble: one of my favorite characters on GoT was the wildling woman Osha, played by Natalia Tena. I learned she also fronted a band called Molotov Jukebox, got on YouTube, and check this out...isn’t that a black EB-3?



These guys seem like ass-kicking groove machines to me. I don’t like Natalia Tena any less for having seen this either.

Steve Swallow had a modded out EB-2 for a while:



He gets a chance to shine (if you can shine on an EB-2) at around 3:22.

Kevin Ayers played the Epiphone Rivoli version exclusively in Soft Machine:

Great track

Jim Wilson with Danei Lanois, I've also seen him with an EB3.

 

[THE SAW]

BTW- I've seen a video of Stu Cook playing an EB on a staged performance of "Bad Moon Rising" although we know he played Fender.

I don't know how to post links- simple search on YouTube, user DRIVERATOMIC. There is another vid of this tune that just shows the group.
