WOW, I never knew these existed! If someone here were to buy that and change it to lefty... You would be one in a million. Too bad I don't have the money... Has anyone converted an Eb-3/Eb-0 and made it work? Arm bump into the controls?

Was expecting a traditional EB with a 5-string mudbucker. That would have been AWESOME! Thunderous, muddy low B! Slightly disappointed ;)

Looks rather... out of proportion :shock:
That hugely wide fingerboard compared to the small body! And I really wonder what the neckdive will be like, the 4-string is already prone to neckdive and a 5-string neck will be even heavier.

Meh, I play a thunderbird (never miss the chance to mention it :D ) and if you replace the tuners with hipshot ultralite tuners and a nice leather strap, its not that bad. It tends to stay in one place, but I wouldn't know because I don't have a five string Eb-3. YET! ;)
