Unless you're worried about wanting something cheaper to take to shady gig venues, or if you're desperate to have one with flats and one without?
Yes, it's the worn ebony one I have. I'm too trigger happy is my problem. If I can pick up the EBO Epi, I'll A/B for a few months and decide which to keep!
The Epiphones are actually fantastic value for money, but unless you need a cheap gigging backup, there's probably not much point in having one if you already have a Gibson - which is essentially an EB-3, I don't know why they changed the name.

In other threads, you have been contemplating buying a mid-price Fender bass guitar with a view towards modifying it. (B.A.S., perhaps?)
IMHO, if you have the wherewithal to tinker with several mid-price bass guitar projects, you should be within striking distance of one professional quality American, British, German or Japanese keeper.
I got a good deal on the SG bass and you are correct, if I just took the plunge over the years I could have a a few top of the line instruments and would have spent less than what I have been doing wheeling and dealing
I'm also tinkering with a squier bronco bass and a strat project

What I really gas after is an EB2, but they are mighty rare in these parts.
I have heard about the neck dive with the EB3 which is long scale right? That put me off.
Again, there's so little on the actual guitar, you'd think less can go wrong!
The Gibson bass I have doesn't have neck dive, or at least I haven't noticed it...
Seems ok strapped on but I’ve not gigged it yet
