Want to Buy - Epiphone EB3 Parts
« on: March 15, 2011, 06:46:35 pm »
Hey I know this is a Sunn forum but I know there's a bunch of fellow bassists out there that might be able to help me out with this refurb project.  I came into an Epiphone EB3 recently at a ridiculously low price that needs some TLC and a few parts replaced.  I know that these basses are notorious for headstock breaks so if anyone has one out there that met it's maker due to a unfortunate fall and is willing to sell me a few replacement parts please drop me a reply. 

I'm specifically looking for covers for both the pickups, the black plastic ring marked 1/2/3 that goes behind the pickup selector knob and the three bridge posts (two large, one small) for the three point bridge.

Also, if anyone knows where I can just purchase these replacement parts on line that would help too but please note that I've already searched the usual suspects out - All Parts, WD, Stewart McDonald, etc... so I'm running out of options.

Thanks in advance...Bill
