This is an awesome Gibson Ripper made in the USA in 1974. It shows normal play wear but no structural damage. The bass is all original and in nice shape. It plays and sounds great. These have a choke inductor which creates a mid control but the choke isn't working. The volume and tone knobs, as well as the varitone all work fine, but the one mid control does not. The guitar has been pro-setup in our store and plays great. It comes with the original case.
