My new 'OLD' Gibson G-3

[rodl2005]

Here's a quick look at my new -old Gibson G-3 1977 model, alder Body, 3 single coil Bill Lawrence Pups(selectable as neck two, all 3, bridge 2-all in humbucking mode) Has a real mid honk-in a good way! Sounds really '70's if ya know what I mean. Will post more after gigs this weekend!

Oooh, that's nice, I've only seen those basses in the normal yellow colour, that's quite different.

I'll be honest, I really miss being in the g-3 club

I used it at the gig last Sat nite. It's simply an awesome bass. I was gonna just use it on the 1st set, but ended up using it all night!! I put set of flats on it B4 the gig. D'addario Chromes 40-95. Lovely old school tone!!!
