Members Casper Cliche Posted January 3, 2007 Members Share Posted January 3, 2007 So I go to guitar center today on my way to work. Not really for anything in particular, just had extra time and thought id see if they had any decent used basses. I look over and see this.... Nothing against anyone who might play one, but I hate basses that look like sg's or Lp's....no offense, but those are guitar bodies not bass bodies if you ask me. I didn't expect much when i picked it up... its an epiphone and only $249.00. Wow i was wrong. The bass sounded really good! Far better than anything I have played in that price range. All i have to say is WHY do they have to make such a good, low cost bass, and make it look like a guitar!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Anesthesia Posted January 3, 2007 Members Share Posted January 3, 2007 I don't see a problem with those, or the EB-0 body shapes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zeromus-X Posted January 3, 2007 Members Share Posted January 3, 2007 Pfft... Les Paul basses are freakin' awesome. Never seen a bass I liked better yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 82Daion Posted January 3, 2007 Members Share Posted January 3, 2007 And the Jazz and Precision don't have their ancestry in guitar shapes? A Les Paul bass appointed like a Gibson Les Paul Custom is one of my ultimate dream basses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EB-0 SG body type (as well as the EB-3) was introduced in 1961, the same year as the SG... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Casper Cliche Posted January 3, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 3, 2007 I think its more of a mental thing. With those body styles I just automatically think guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
