Vintage 1959 Gibson EB-2 Bass Guitar Project:
$2295.00



Up for sale is a vintage 1959 Gibson EB-2 Electric bass. It is being sold for restoration or parts. As you can see, it is not complete and needs work.
The good: It\'s a \'59 EB-2! The serial number, A29562 dates it to early 1959. The body and neck still have their original finish and there are no structural issues with the body. The neck is straight. This will obviously be a project but it can certainly be brought back to life.
The Bad: Plenty of signs of age and use. Missing pickup and parts. It seems that someone added 2 tuning pegs in an attempt to turn it into a guitar or baritone??? They also added a 6 string bridge. The fingerboard is completely loose and is not attached and the Gibson logo is missing although some of it is saved in a plastic bag in the case. One headstock wing is completely missing. Besides needing to have the fingerboard re-attached, the neck will probably need to be re-set. There are other issues as well but the pictures really tell the story.This is a project for sure but it\'s areal 1959 Gibson! It includes a nice, brand new hardshell case.
This one is perfect for someone who can restore a vintage bass or someone who is looking for a real 1959 Gibson project.
Please study all of the photos and ask questions. I have tried to describe it to the best of my abilities but I\'m no expert. I have been selling on for over 16 years with 100% positive response so offer with confidence.
Please be aware that this is a project bass and is being sold AS-IS, AS-FOUND!
