Hi all. I picked up this Gibson EB-3 copy from a local buy, sell and trade store. I couldn’t find a country of origin on it but the wires to the pots say Swan Japan STD on them (if that’s some indication).It weighs about 8 pounds and has a 1 5/8 nut width. Short scale and chunky neck.
I was...
The SG and EB design has always seemed uniquely cool to me. Saturday on FB marketplace a local posted this 2006 SG. The seller was asking only $800.00 for bass and case. The Monster Cable cord was a nice add on, too. She retired from the bluegrass band she had been in so probably just wanted to...
I've got a recent Gibson SG, and I'm asking the group if anyone has replaced the neck pickup with a Curtis Novak DS-BS? I'm trying to get more towards the sound of the original mudbucker and what would do the trick?
2015 Gibson SG Standard Bass - Heritage Cherry - w/ original hardshell case
I purchased this bass to use as a live backup to my other SG. Turns out that band never played out, so this lovely specimen has been sitting in its case, untouched for a couple of years now. Condition is great. Awesome...

This is the 6th Epiphone EB-0 I've upgraded to be more like the USA made Gibson SG bass. Made in 2016, it's in near mint condition.
It's incredibly clean and shows little to no use whatsoever. The neck is straight and the frets show no wear. The mahogany grain gorgeous. Here's what was done...

Hi!
I have a Curtis Novak eb0 pickup, it was installed in my 1968 Gibson EB2 by previous owner. However I decided to reinstall the original mudbucker in the EB2, and maybe replace the neck pickup on my Gibson SG bass (2013, faded) with the Curtis Novak? Would it add more beef, or is there no...

I recently bought a beautiful used 2014 Anniversary model SG Bass, with an upgraded hipshot bridge. This is the first Gibson short scale I've used - I also have an MIJ Mustang, a Danelectro Longhorn, and a Chowny SWB-1. They all have very different sounds (obviously) - the Mustang has flats and...
Pulled from my 2015 Gibson SG bass. In excellent shape, full original length of wire. Sorry no cover.
Happy to ship outside of US if buy pays any additional shipping.

just own Fenders but considering buying an Gibson SG shortscale ( seems fun to play and the sound is ...mmmm )
but will it be OK to run this tuning on it?
Only made one year. Babicz factory bridge. No fretwear. Gold case. Super clean. Weight is 6.8 lbs. Couple very minor dings that would not photograph. Nice dark rosewood fingerboard. Shipping included.

in the world of woulda coulda shoulda I've always hoped at some point we'd have seen Geez don one to provide the perfect lefty / righty scene of opposing twin devil-horned dbl. cutaways on stage, be it a Gibson or a custom from his preferred makers but AFAIK it never once occurred. I don't know...
Hi there! I'm back with a topic about strings on the Gibson SG bass.
I'm a proud owner of a 2010 Faded working perfectly, light, "worn" and big sounding, and I'm using it with roundwound strings, because I have flats on my Jazz Bass. that's probably my favourite bass right now, with a big and...
So I have a Gibson sg bass and I've been having some issues. It's very fussy about which patch cords it likes, and I noticed it makes a loud popping sound when I pull it away from my jacket. The sound is quite loud and comes through the amp. The bass makes no other odd sounds though and sounds...
Hi All,
My main gigging bass is a 83 Jazz Bass that's been Plecked, and upgraded with Aguilar AG 4J-60 pickups and Sadowsky on board preamp, and Bad Ass Bridge, and it sounds amazing.
Unfortunately, I have small hands and my short scale Gibson SG Reissue bass is just more comfortable to play...
Thought this is more of a bass question, so I've posted here rather than in strings.
The Gibson SG bass. I've got a satin 120th Anniversary one, and I'm still waiting for my 2018 cherry one. Even though they seem well available in the US, here in the UK I've been waiting nearly 10 weeks, and...
Name says it all! Sold an old bass today and went to the local guitar store planning to grab a used upright to try and learn on, it was gone so I walked out with this instead. Anyone else play one of these? Post some pics of your SG style basses!

the most feasible way to achieve my ever fleeting dream of a great original EB is to make it and maybe this recut idea from a kit is the most expeditious route if viewers think the smaller violin body can fit on the SG template. I'll probably add a third cutaway at the tail which may lessen the...
Is there any difference between two? The only difference I can see is the inlays. What makes the SG bass special very cheap? Is it a good bass? Is it challenging if I used to play full scale? How's the sound? Is it hard to found a gig bag or hard case? I found a very good deal on Squier price...
i just picked up a Gibson SG bass and so far, i really like it. compared to the beautiful all original vintage EB-3 (1968) that i sold recently, it's actually quite a bit heavier (which i don't prefer) at 8lbs 7 oz. my '68 was 7lbs 5oz (which was great).
there are few things that i do like...
Hey everyone!
I recently picked up a Gibson SG bass that I'm super stoked about. I was wondering if anyone has tried using TI JF324 jazz flats (short scale) on this bass? The bass has a 30.5 scale for reference. I've always used La Bella low tension flats on my T birds, but in super curious to...
Purchased brand new at GC in 2014. Incredible playing short scale (30"), much loved instrument. I wanted this to be my lifer but it just didn’t provide the sound I wanted. Inlay at 12th fret has 120th Anniversary banner as was applied to all Gibson instruments in 2014. Amazing deal for a USA...
