I love Gibson basses - Pretty much all of them, sorry I could only vote once, my real love, a Thunderbird II!

I got one you might add... Gibson Thunder Series Basses, basically studio Thunderbirds. Very low production, but IMO one of their best all-around basses ever. They were only produced for one year, 1987... too obscure?
