Hey all!

Anyone recognises this puppy?

Voilà! Third bass from the top, the legendary/object of derision in this inane forum only 20/20, a Ned Steinberger design at the advent of Gibson taking over near bankrupt Steinberger Guitars in the late eighties.

Except for the gold lettering, the pup is very reminiscent of the pups of an RD Artist. A very hifi sound made for (and only loved in) the eighties. Both the RD Artist and the 20/20 were always in active mode. Great for getting that much missed Mark King "Lessons of Love" sound. Gaffa tape that thumb!  ;D
