“Mountain”and “Electric Lady”. I like it.

Electric Lady has that old but current vibe to it, and Mountain reminds me of the natural mahogany electric guitars the guys in the early to mid 60s used to make in my high school when mahogany was inexpensive. That high school was a stone’s throw away from the mountains that we could see (like Mount Baker) across the Strait of Georgia.

"Electric Lady" was a 1969 EKO Bass that had a special signature on the back of the body. It was a BD present from my dad. The EKO had the signature, "Electric Lady" from a pretty well known guitarist, and his initials. My dad knew him, and he knew I followed his playing.
"Mountain" is the sounds I get from playing that Walnut SG Std. I have a feeling Felix would've liked this Gibson Bass.

I heard from someone, the Gibson SG Std. 2018's are limited run to 100 per color. I don't know. I hadn't heard that prior to acquiring my two. So if they are a limited run, I have a Heritage Cherry, and a Walnut.

Well, if that’s the case, don’t break that cherry one you have in your avatar. :P

You're saying that they are going to make only a 100 basses each? That doesn't seem like a lot, but then again, bass doesn't seem to be a Gibson priority.

No way. An axe is an axe, but not a bass.

Who knows. I don't know how true the statement is that I heard. Hell for all I know if it is true, these can be SG Std. parts they want use up. The only thing I can say for my two, they were released at the just the right time for me to get. I would like to see the SG Basses in a regular stock series again. They do have their place in bass land.

Yeah, that could just be a rumor, unless it comes from Gibson, itself. They've frequently produced this bass in the past several years, so I don't see why they'd just make only a few, unless they aren't selling, which seems unlikely, otherwise they probably wouldn't have made these in the first place.

That's a great photo/app, Glenn. Both you and the SG have swag. 8)

Thanks, the SG Std. in the pic is a 2012, or 2013 Faded SG Std.

You were channeling your inner Pete Townshend, albeit with a bass guitar. :P
