A very underrated Gibson Bass. Anthony Jackson used this bass when he was with the Buddy Rich Big Band. I also remember an old Gibson advertisement, circa 1974, in which Peter Cetera was an endorser. Gene Simmons got some of the best bass tones ever with his Ripper bass on KISS ALIVE,as did Dave Kiswiney (of Ted Nugent fame).

My friend Tom (of Visionary Studios) thinks it should be smashed. If you turn the bass, it looks like a paddle, or something used to load pizza into the pizza oven...
