cLepto-bass Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I always fancied one of these but dont have money. I thought I'd share it with y'all [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GIBSON-RD-STANDARD-BASS-GUITAR-VERY-RARE-GREAT-CONDITON_W0QQitemZ150412629608QQcategoryZ33040QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp3907.m263QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DSIC%26itu%3DUCI%252BIA%252BUA%252BIEW%252BFICS%252BUFI%252BDDSIC%26otn%3D33%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D54"]Gibson RD[/url] Nice looking bass.

harvey1-8 Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I spotted this earlier today. Still really fancy the RD in the Gibson Porn thread with the binding round the body. Quote
rapscallion Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I used to have one, selling it was idiotic, even if it was far from original Quote
cLepto-bass Posted February 9, 2010 Author Posted February 9, 2010 I remember seeing a cool as **** picture of Jon Entwhistle playing one of these and I have wanted one ever since then. Mind you, what bass didnt he play and manage to look cool with?! Quote
umcoo Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I played one of these once and the neck was absoluetly massive. I was using a Precision at the time, so was used to fat necks, but this was crazy. Sounded pretty terrible too! Just my two pence Quote
neepheid Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 £40 postage on Parcelforce 48? What's the case made of - concrete? Quote
lemmywinks Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 They do weigh an absolute ton, not over the 30kg limit with PF though. Also the case is very long as these have huge headstocks I had an RD Artist '77 in maple. Eventually sold it for around £470, was on eBay with a reserve of £600 and didn't get one bid! Quote
