Just in time for the Holidays! Gibson 20/20 on eBay......

[Grog]

I think it's been over two years since one of these beauties have popped up. Any takers?

Do it! You know you want to!

Who could resist those graceful lines and tastefully applied graphics? 

[Basvarken]

Great bass!

And certainly a head-turner.

I'll wait a couple of years for the reissue.  hehehe.

They'll f*ck that up for sure.

It's a nice enough example. I'll be surprised if he gets much more than his starting bid, unless two or more Outposters get in a Christmas bidding war.

[Grog]

This Outposter already has two. It's time to spread the cheer to another open minded bassist!

[Basvarken]

Gratuitous video!

Great bass!

And certainly a head-turner.

Also - thankfully so - a real head-tuner.

But it's true what Rob says, I've never seen anyone in a band - even the most vintage obsessed guitarists that would never be caught with a guitar shaped like that - be dismissive of the looks of my 20/20. There are a lot of things right about it. It's a puristic, functional design, Ned put some thought into it. The only real surprise I get is when people ask incredulously: "Oh, it's actually made of wood?" That always seems to defeat expectations, to a lot of people paddle = not wood, the first Steinbergers created a lasting perception.

As modernistic 80ies basses go, it's a classic like the Kubicki Factor.

And if you wear a cape with it, chances are that people think you are the keyboarder and you will get some girls too for once!

Just not appearing on UK Ebay...?

Keytar players get the girls? News to me. And what cape?
