You’re right about the colour match between the pickup and scratch plate. I’ve taken the plate off, looks better.

Sorry no idea. I bought it second hand and there’s no clue on the label. I think these were only made for a very limited period, no doubt under pressure to stop from Epiphone who has moved production to China. I have started a thread on Peerless but so far mine is the only one posted, why not stick yours on there too?

I had a sunburst 66 EB2D a while back, they really do have a sound of their own. Looking at the photos I think Scrumymike is incorrect, I can’t see a 2nd pickup and there are no controls for it. Mine had independent volume and tone for each pickup, so I think this is correctly an EB2 and the single pickup model seems to be more collectible. -
Brilliant bass, Peerless make first class guitars. Love my Bassmaster Player and used to have a New Yorker guitar which I shouldn’t have sold. GLWS sorry I can’t afford it myself.- 35 replies

I am pleased that the current management of Epiphone are recreating basses and guitars from their own past catalogues instead of imitations of the Gibson models and a couple of Hofners. Even though they were owned by Gibson since the dawn of time or at least Rock n roll time, they have a heritage of their own which is well worth recreation.

Just found this stand on DV247 for £53.99 delivered. Ordered one and will see how it is a report further. -

PIckup for a Bouzouki? Any ideas / suggestions welcome
Grahambythesea replied to Marc S's topic in Other Instruments
I do play octave mandolin, but mine has a built in piezo which I think is Artec. However a cheap an effective solution is “The Cap”, a pickup in a bottle top which applies with a sort of putty to the front of the instrument. I used one a while back and it worked well considering the price. I looked them up on the net and Hot Rox still sell them. -

Great bass, a real classic. I hope the battery was taken out when it went out of use. It looks like it needs a really good clean.

Great looker, makes me think I need an anodised plate. 🤔 -
I had a black one about the same date. Cost me £99! -
If they’re going from E down to Eb you could fit a hipster d-tuner set to drop the half. The rest of the notes above are the same.

I saw a band outside Starbucks in Seattle called Slimpickin’s and their bassist had an aluminium bodied upright bass. Sounded good.
