Gibson RD Artist part list (1981). Gibson produced regular component lists throughout the 1970s, though the last major list (with information beyond simple prices) dated 1977 did not include the RD series guitars. In 1981, Gibson released a part-list folder, with the RD Artist finally included - though this was for the second version (or RD79) of the bass, with mini toggles controlling the in-built Moog circuitry. Apparently, no list was published for the earlier RD77 version. Non-electronic components are typically unchanged.
A similar sheet was also included for the RD Standard bass.

All electronics have been tested to be working perfectly. Recently set up as well. Kept in a smoke free, pet free studio for recording purposes. Comes ... more
