Jigster Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 Does it handle feedback well at higher volumes? Nice bass [size=4] [/size]

It sounds a good as it looks too and pelham really suits this style of bass but for some reason Gibson discontinued the colour pretty early. I had a feedback issue with my old hofner so that was one to the main things I looked out for and kept in mind when i bought it. I'm happy to say that feed back isn't an issue!
Tripehound Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 I have a Gibson Midtown Standard 6 string (the P90 version) and it is a sensationally good instrument. If this is anything like the guitar then it will be a brilliant bass.

I think Gibson have really up'd their game over the past year or so and started producing some really good stuff thats a little different. This is a bass for someone that likes the hollowbody look, wants good tone and a beautiful looking bass and doesn't want to worry about feedback.
Clint Posted November 19, 2013 Author Posted November 19, 2013 Getting loads of views on ebay and elsewhere but no reasonable offers as yet! BUMP
Clint Posted November 26, 2013 Author Posted November 26, 2013 Bump for reduction or small trade possibility!
