The Les Paul Standard Bass from Gibson USA takes the Les Paul styling and the classic design and construction— and applies them to the low end—with an "oversized" Les Paul body.
Gibson says: “From gut-thumping rumble to punchy funky snap, it’s also extremely flexible and suitable to any genre, thanks to the simple yet versatile pickup and electronics complement that has made the Les Paul six-string so adaptable for nearly 60 years.”
