Gibson 'Money' Les Paul Bass - 2007 - SOLD
£600

dougal · December 12, 2018

This is the second Gibson bass I've owned, and I think I finally have to admit I'm a Fender man. Although I still have to admit, I love the way they look.

Bought on here a few months ago (see link at bottom of post) for £600 because I wanted to try it out. I've played it at 4 rehearsals and 2 gigs, and whilst it's not a bad bass, it's just not quite what I'm looking for. Doesn't quite sit right, either physically or sonically for what I want.

I think the original post says what needs to be said more succinctly than I can.

These were a very limited run (400 of two colour variations) in 2007. This one is was born on June 5th of that year.
It sounds like a good Gibson
Construction wise it's a set neck, Mahogany body, a layer of Walnut, and then a lovely Maple top.
Mostly original chrome original hardware. (strap buttons replaced with Schaller-style lock buttons. Originals included.)
Dollar sign truss plate (includes spare 'Les Paul' plate ).
Condition wise it is in very good nick sparing some buckle rash on the rear of the bass.
The neck is straight and true.

Trades wise if you have a dirty P-bass, a stingray, a bolt on Warwick Thumb, or something interesting that you value in the same ballpark and willing to give/take some extra cash to make a deal, hit me up. Four strings only.

Bass is in Chertsey. Come - drink tea, play basses. Happy to ship at buyer's expense. Happier to meet up within sensible distance.

Here are some up-to-date-pictures.
