Gibson 1976 bass catalog, page 2. Introduction to the 1976 bass catalog. This page (dated 1976) is an updated version of the equivalent page of the 1975 catalog, expanded to describe the Gibson G-3 bass.
Now Gibson forges still more frontiers with the Grabber, another superb new bass design. It’s full of flexibility so the artist can choose his own personal playing action as well as his personal sound with a patented sliding pickup. In fact the Grabber has been so successful, Gibson now offers the Grabber III. With three Humbucking pickups, this bass is extremely versatile and extraordinarily "hot."
The above description is not quite correct: the Grabber III (or G-3 as it is more often known) actually has three single coil pickups (not humbuckers), though they are wired together in a humbucking arrangement - however stating there are three humbuckers is not accurate.
