    A very rare piece of Southern Rock History! This bass was owned and used by the late great Leon Wilkeson. Leon used this bass live and in the studio with Lynyrd Skynyrd in the 1970’s, The Rossington Collins Band, and on the 1987-88 Lynyrd Skynyrd Tribute Tour. This bass was one of Leon’s favorite basses to play, if not his favorite.
