I've already posted my SG reissue here and gotten my number, but I thought you all might be interested in seeing it again now that it has a Hipshot Supertone bridge installed.

I also put in a set of Ultra Lites and the evil neck dive is completely cured. The bass is now a joy to wear and play.

I am very happy.

This modded bass looks very cool and inspiring. Thanks!

Greetings,

I am buying a new to me '73 Les Paul Signature bass tonight. Lovely bass has hardly been played. I'm very excited. Came across this "club" last night.

Am curious how many of you may own and play Signature LPs? Impressions, comments? I for one was really taken by its tone.

I look forward to hearing more from the members of this group regarding Gibson basses, Les Pauls in particular.

hi Tim, congrats on your LP Signature and be sure to give us your impressions of it! I've always loved the look of those but they're not easy to come by. check out http://gibsonbass.com/ or http://bassoutpost.com for a lot of Gibson love.

 

[tsarter]

Will do - I'll be picking it up tonight (local SF Bay Area CL sale in my town).

Thanks for the links. I'll check them out.

Hey I want in - I just picked up a super sweet long scale EB-4L from 1972ish. Just ordered a Hipshot SuperTone bridge to replace the BadAss that's on it... I'll grab a pic soon but I wanted to get a number. Thanks

Well, I also have no number yet. Here is one of my two Gibson basses (the other is a sunburst RD Artist):

What is that a Q80? Or is it the Q90. How do you like that bass?

Thank you. I am well and truly in love. Can't keep my hands off her and when I'm across the room I can't stop staring.

What is that a Q80? Or is it the Q90. How do you like that bass?

It is a Q-80. I think the Q-90 has P/J or piezo pickups and a slightly smaller headstock. This one has the same pickups that were offered on the SB series, Grabber and Explorer basses. It is not that much of a neck diver despite that huge headstock. I have no case for it, and because of the big headstock it doesn't fit any of the other bass cases I have. The neck is nice, the hardware too. The pickups sound okay. It gets a bit boomy when the strings are too old. I like the body style (I always liked the Victory series), this body is of mahogany. Well, I wouldn't have paid a lot for this bass. Even though it has a custom shop sticker on the back (as all Q-80's I have seen have) it seems a bit like an average instrument. I paid $400 in 1996 for this, I don't what the list price was. Not really a Thunderbird but neither a Fender, except maybe for the feeling. To me, it is easier to play and more Gibson-like than my RD Artist which I also like.
