The Epiphone EB-3, as most visitors to this site will know, is a reintroduction of the classic Gibson EB-3. In many ways the Epiphone is true to a 1960s EB-3 (body and neck materials, construction, pickup style and placement), although it took certain features of 1970s instruments (three-point bridge, 34" scale). Some features, however had not previously appeared on an EB-3, such as the trapezoid inlays, having 22 frets (compared to 20/21) and the varitone knob; although made to look like the Gibson original, is actually just a three-way pickup switch.

The Gibson is noted for it's tonal extremes: a very deep, muddy neck tone, a bright but dirty bridge tone, and various setting in between. The Epiphone has tamed these extremes, but without completely loosing the character of the instrument. The neck pickup is still deep and bassy, but without a loss of note clarity, and the bridge is bright, but without the Jack Bruce/Andy Fraser dirty growl.
