The Gibson SB400 bass and Gibson SG200 guitar were launched in 1971. Both were entry level instruments with relatively short production runs; 939 SB400s were shipped between the years 1971 and 1973, see SB bass shipping figures.
This exciting new addition to the Gibson line of quality basses offers the sounds of today! Designed to meet the demands of today's music, the SB-300 with 30 1/2" scale or SB-400 with a long 34 1/2" scale truly offers the "punch" required to support a group! Deep, rich bass tonalities! Clean, clear highs! Available at the touch of a finger!
