Custom Gibson Les Paul Bass Nitro Gold Top

A sweet Les Paul Gold Top bass with nitro laquer finish. This bass was recently setup by one of the top luthiers in our area.

The Les Paul Standard Bass is rooted in the classic tonewood combination of a mahogany body with solid carved maple top. Together, these woods offer outstanding tonal depth and richness from the mahogany, with superb clarity and “snap” from the maple. Grade-A rosewood fingerboard with traditional trapezoid inlays and 20 medium-jumbo frets. Gibson includes its legendary Tune-o-matic bridge and stud-mounted stopbar tailpiece, arguably the most storied hardware combination in the history of the electric guitar, adapted here for the bass.

This solid, resonant foundation is pumped to your amp of choice through two of Gibson USA’s powerful Thunderbird Bass pickups. These humbucking pickups are made with ceramic magnets for enhanced punch and clarity, to pull everything from a solid, low rumble to sweet, musical higher tones from this impressive bass, all with outstanding fidelity and clarity. Individual volume and tone controls and a three-way switch offer a wide range of tones. Finally, a set of highly efficient Grover® bass tuners with a 20:1 gear ratio offer optimum tuning smoothness and precision.

Includes original Gibson Factory Hardshell Case. There is one flaw on the bass side of back of the headstock that is visible in the corresponding image in this listing other than that it is nothing short of stunning. This bass weighs 10 pounds.
