The Story

Used Steve Miller Collection 1973 Les Paul Triumph Electric Bass Walnut

When your professional career in Rock and Roll spans over forty years, you can imagine that one might accumulate a lot of guitars. When it comes to music legend Steve Miller, we mean a lot of guitars. From instruments that Steve had bought on the road, to those that were gifted from other Rock stars, to guitars that were made for charity or other special commemorations – Steve Miller and The Music Zoo are proud to present to you the Steve Miller Collection.

We’ve teamed up with Steve to “thin the herd” as we like to say, and give you the opportunity to own some very special guitars that have lots of vibe and history to them. Steve is a player as much as he is a collector, and you can be sure that these guitars are the cream of the crop when it comes to their playability. Some of these guitars have been touring guitars played by Steve, or made for him by specific builders to his specifications. Everyone one of these guitars includes a certificate of authenticity signed by Steve Miller, and attached is a picture of Steve playing that very guitar at his home studio before they arrived at The Music Zoo.

This is a '73 Gibson Les Paul Triumph Bass, the 4-string incarnation of the Les Paul Recording guitar with a built-in impedance selector with onboard volume, bass, and treble controls - as well as a phase control for when both pickups are engaged. The bass is in very good condition with some wear to the body, including some dings and lacquer checking throughout.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Steve Miller Collection Certificate of Authenticity
