Gibson Basses / Re: Uwe! Gibson 20/20

$480.00 is a good price for such an oddball. I paid almost double that for mine & it's silver. About ten years ago I could have had one for about $350.00, with hardshell case. I waited too long & a road manager for the group Beck bought it. On his websight, he still lists it as one of his basses. Any idea how many were produced?

Good question............I think it was just for looks. The earliest Les Paul Signatures had the same pickups, only in cream color. They were straight on that model. Also the Les Paul Jumbo pickup was mounted straight.

The diagonal pickups are only on the guitars, Les Paul Professional & Recording.

Thanks for the welcome! One of the things I regret putting off until it was too late was meeting Les Paul before he passed away. I would have enjoyed talking to him about Low Impedance Guitars & Basses. I have been collecting Gibson Basses & matching guitars for about 20 years. It took about five years to collect the three sets in the picture, I've had them for close to ten years. I submitted this picture to the VG Readers Gallery shortly after I acquired the LP-12 amp two years ago. It was published 3 weeks after I sent it, Aug 07.
