Gibson Ripper promo disk, side 2

Gibson bass guitars | Ripper bass main page | Ripper publicity

Back cover of the Gibson Ripper promo disk from 1974. One great feature of this record is that it details the precise settings of each sound demonstrated: walking bass, pick sound, finger sound, popular electric bass sound, entirely new bass sound, funky finger picking sound, double stops. You can hear some of these settings in the Ripper soundclips section of this site.

1972 Gibson L6-S Bass Prototype (Ripper, Grabber) Singlecut Sunburst

Gibson L9S RIPPER 1976 Electric Guitar USA Vintage Rare Maple with Hard Case

Gibson L9S RIPPER 1976 Electric Guitar USA Vintage Rare Maple with Hard Case

Chesterfield, Virginia, 238**, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

$3800

But I don't play it often and my home air ... more
