I think it has to do with the EBO necks being not very precisely made.
If I'm in tune in open E, then almost nothing else is. 
 
 Those Danelectro-style basses always sound nice to me, although they
 obviously don't have the all-purpose overall quality of a P-bass.

I played one of those today and I liked it pretty good, but it still
doesn't have that long, unctuous sustain that I need for KRhodes new stuff.

Just found out the original J. Geils Band is coming to Columbus to play
this over-priced shithole called Polaris. One of 15 shows. I will be
there, despite Polaris and my sworn oaths.

 Some fine houseparty moments over the years, courtesy the JGB, and they
got off the plane I was getting on once long long ago in Spokane WA

Lookin for a love.

 You obviously never met Mr. Whitley. 

As matter of fact I did meet him once. He was a perfect gentleman, and
sober
as a judge. He put on a great show as well. What he did when he was back
on
the bus was probably much more sinister and self destructive.

I know that Ms. Morgan was not the cause of his alcoholism, but she
certainly
was a symptom. 

My brother worked for RCA during one of her stints on the label. She was
no
sweetheart, let me tell you. He also went to elementary school with her,
but
that's another story.
