This bass is just not getting enough action from me these days. Minimal wear for a bass that is almost 30 years old. Includes OHSC. Really looking to trade up (so, bass + cash from me) for hybrid or tube amps. Shoot me offers, the worst I can say is no. EDIT: Still FT, but if you have a Jazz or P offer, throw 'em my way! Album with a ton more shots of the bass
If you need any specific shots, let me know.

I've played/owned all 3 models of this bass. I prefer the Passive Models, which this is. Grossly under rated basses.
Here's a Cool Link on the Victory, which has a Link to an interview with Chuck Burge, who designed the Victory & RD basses for Gibson. http://www.flyguitars.com/gibson/bass/Victory.php

Also, pics in better lighting  |
