RD is one of the less prominent but, nevertheless, equally important and significant 1970s body shapes. It was introduced near the end of the decade in order to mix things up a little bit. Over the time, RD models were removed from the catalog, appearing only sporadically over the years. 2018 catalog of Gibson USA features one four-stringed RD, named RD Artist Bass 2018. It is a solid-bodied, flat-top axe with a standard 34" scale, hybrid passive/active electronics, and classic RD styling. Natural is the only available color option. Other features include an all-maple single-cut body, a set-in maple neck (rounded profile, satin finish), a 20-fret rosewood fingerboard (1.6" nut, 12" radius, dot inlays), a Babicz bridge, EB pickups, and Grover Shamrock tuners.
