This bass guitar is the prototype for the L6-S bass, a model that was never manufactured by Gibson. Although it is the prototype for an instrument that was not produced, it also seems to be a prototype of the Ripper and Grabber models introduced later that are constructed with the same materials (maple neck and body) and similar dimensions. The look of this one does foreshadow those later models

Plenty of mojo in this original Gibson grabber bass , played in every honkytonk up and down this great country over the last 49 years . Plays like butter , pickup moves back and forwards . I have never had the frets done or a Serice in a very long time . Comes with original case , though does need some attention.
Looking for a new owner as I don??t play much anymore
A fantastic vintage bass
