Hey everyone,
I bought a Ripper bass back around 2007. The seller told me that it was built by a Gibson employee after hours for personal use, so it had some unique features: bolt on neck, custom truss cover, and no serial. The fit and finish look very good to me compared to other Gibson instruments I own or have been around. But I’m curious if this is even a thing that happened, or were Ripper’s faked? I’m curious to hear some opinions.
