It's always just been 'RD' for forty years now, and I don' t think it means anything, haha

Oh yeah. I actually can't believe I've never owned one. The originals are sick.

Found an ad from 1977. 'RD' means 'Research & Development.'

You can have one...

Personally I am holding out for an original but I sure would not mind taking one of the new ones home.

Wang Chung. Gibson RD. Dance Hall Days. Dig it.
I’ve used wireless for about 20 years. I have an Audio Technica system, DR-R5 with a ATW-R09 taransmitter and DRT-500 receiver. It’s a UHF system operating at 944.1 MHZ.
I replaced that with a Shure PGX D1 system last year. It operates at 902.928 MHZ. The Audio Technica system is yours if you want it, just PM me an address. It’s in great shape, only used at home and in the studio.

UPDATE:
I been using this Audio Technica Wireless Unit I got from Don O for about 2 weeks now. It has really added a new dimension to my playing at our rehearsals. It really works well and does not seem to 'color' the guitar's tone in any way. It's really liberating to be free from a cable...Thanks again, Don!!!

Robert, glad it found a good home! I’m certainly a wireless fan.

1977-1980 Gibson RD Standard/Custom/Artist all 25.50" scale maple body and neck finger board maple or ebony no rosewood.
Gibson did reissue the RD but in 24.75 scale only. The original RD was Gibson's first long scale guitar. I do own the RD Standard 1978 it was a gift from Blues Mike. Huge stock case.

How strange to offer a Gibson in such an oddball scale length...
