Gibson EB2 Bass Players

Comedy act, the Three Twins. Al Douglas plays a custom order white Gibson EB2 bass, and Bill Bigger, a white Gibson ES350TD more (taken from Gibson Gazette July / August 1960) The bass is obviously an early example as it has the smaller headstock and back-facing banjo tuners. Despite the fact this bass had a custom finish, it is not a lefty - it is strung as a right handed instrument. Was it just held this way round for a symmetrical photo? Or did Al Douglas play 'upside down', Albert King style? comment

Jimmy Page with the Yardbirds and a Gibson EB2 bass; most likely a 1964 or early 1965 example. Page played bass, albeit briefly, for the Yardbirds in 1966 after Paul Samwell Smith (who played an Epiphone Rivoli) left the band.

Bob Daisley played numerous Gibson bass guitars throughout his career - he is pictured here with the EB2. Read more in the FlyGuitars Bob Daisley interview.

Glenn Cornick with Jethro Tull and Gibson EB2 bass. Glenn's patronage of Gibson basses was well established with his use of the EB-3 and Thunderbird basses in the late 1960s, however his use of the EB-2 is less known - with good reason. Read more about Glenn's thoughts on this bass here: Glenn Cornick and the EB2.

Suzi Quatro with Gibson EB2 bass. Again Suzi used several different Gibson basses, mostly the short scale models. Read more about Suzi's thoughts on the EB2 here: Suzi Quatro and her EB2.

Fort Lauderdale, Florida, 333**, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

$9995

This is a truly superb original example of one of the rarer Gibson electric basses: the first-generation semi-hollow EB-2. The EB-2 in general is not a overly rare bass, but these earliest models built in the debut year were sold in only small numbers; many more were built in 1964-68 when production was at its peak. The ES-335 guitar from 1958 is one of Gibson??s most treasured and sought after instruments; this matching bass is actually considerably rarer, if not as highly in demand ! The EB-2 ... view on ebay
