2001 Gibson Les Paul Standard Bass

2001 Gibson Les Paul Standard bass

This beautiful Gibson Les Paul Standard bass was produced at Gibson's Nashville plant in 2001. It is long scale, with a nice vintage sunburst bound front, natural (unbound) back and sides (except around the neck joint area) and ebony fretboard with trapezoid neck marker inlays. A great looking and highly effective bass! Unlike many earlier Les Paul basses, this model has a similar construction to the Les Paul Standard guitar, having a mahogany body with carved maple top, and set (glued in) mahogany neck.
