Gibson bass guitars | Part descriptions | Pickups | Gibson Les Paul bass low impedance humbucker (1969-79)

Gibson part numbers 13555 (front), 13560 (back). From 1969, the Les Paul bass, and later the Les Paul Triumph bass, used this low impedance pickup, easily identifiable by the chrome surround and Gibson script. Both basses were 'recording' basses made for studio use (although still great live) with a wide range of sounds
