Gordon-Smith Gryphon
£995.00
Gordon-Smith instruments have been renowned for well over 3 decades for their superb playability and great tone and these Gryphon basses carry on that proud tradition. This one is offered in that classic, timeless livery of Black & Maple and the hand carved neck is just superb.
Forget the long-standing debate about weak passive pickups vs active modern basses. The Gryphon solves the problem - 2x very high output G-S Custom Humbuckers, each one splittable into single coil operation (either coil) for a wide range of big, articulate tones that sound engineers (whether live or in the studio) find so easy to work with. Even the ears of your fellow band members will prick up!
Precision, Jazz, SG, et al…forget them - this bass has them all covered and more!
