Gibson Money Basses, Limited run around 2007. I think 400 of each color. There's White and Red also. Others here will probably know a little more. I'm still doing research. All I know is that they Kill!
I think there was another model the same but not labeled “money bass”. I think they may have been called LP Double Cut or similar. They are also very nice - I don’t know what the differences are though
 
Ashdown guts. I took it out to air can it and blow out any dust from over the years. I do it on the deck so my neighbor thinks I'm smart and know what I'm doing. Actually just don't want dust in the house.

It's a very different feel from the Bird, also any solid body.
I’m sub’d!
I’ve heard from other players that the max setting on that three position varitone switch is to die for.
