Gibson Grabber Is Roadworthy Like A Red-Headed Stepchild
December 03, 2008
Sal from the Bama Lamas likes his basses ugly. That way he doesn't feel so bad when he beats them up. Basses that fit this description are usually, unfortunately, also terrible sounding, but luckily for Sal the Gibson Grabber he found both sounded great and looked like it was never asked to prom. Plus he got it cheap! Man, some guys have all the luck.

In the early 70s (73 or 74)Gibson put out the L9-S (the second year it was renamed The Ripper) and The Grabber. They had pretty much the same body shape, but the L9-S/Ripper had a set neck, 2 Bill Lawrence designed humbuckers, and a traditional Gibson 'open book' headstock. The Grabber had a bolt on neck, a flying V shaped headstock, and a single sliding pickup. You could physically slide it from bridge to neck position.
The G3, the one in this clip, came out a couple years later. It shared the body shape, bolt on neck, and V headstock with the Grabber but it had 3 single coil pickups. It, along with the Gibson S1 guitar, were budget/entry level models.
