Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around Gene Simmons’ modified 1959 EB-0, this Gibson Custom four-string brings those alterations into a production Custom Shop bass. The 30.5-inch-scale, mahogany-bodied design uses a custom-profile mahogany neck and Indian rosewood fingerboard. Its pickup sits closer to the bridge, and the high-mass bridge gives you a choice between string-through-body and top-loaded stringing. A custom hardshell case comes with the instrument for transport and storage.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who want a 30.5-inch-scale, right-handed four-string bass based on Gene Simmons’ modified EB-0.
- Choosing between top-loaded and string-through-body stringing at the high-mass bridge.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; this model is specified as right-handed.
- Players requiring more than four strings; it is a four-string bass.
