Hi Big Stu, no its a chromed plastic frame that were fitted to the earliest EB3's. They were not chromed from about 63 on.

Sorry for the delay - and thanks - genuine case of learning something every day.

Hey guys,This is 76' Grabber, I got the maple neck sanded down as it was pretty worn. Refinished in gloss and refretted. Replaced the original bridge with a Hipshot A style 18mm, string thru holes lined up perfectly!

Body will be refinished when I get around to it, but I am very happy with the way it plays and how the bridge worked out!

Plus I recorded it through some vintage amps (60s Ampeg B15, Gibson Atlas, 70s WEM dominator bass) - listen to the sounclips here
