Gibson Thunderbird Parts

electracoyote · #1 08-25-2010, 09:46 PM

I just did a complete makeover on a 1991 Gibson Thunderbird, refinished the body and replaced all original hardware and electronics, and I am now offering the originals for sale to my TB brothers and sisters. I'm accepting only PayPal credit card payments. All prices include shipping to the lower 48, which makes these good deals so I'm pretty firm:

1. Black Three-Point Bridge Assembly, complete with three posts and all four saddles/screws, ~~$75.00~~ ~~PRICE DROP $55.00 SHIPPED!~~PRICE DROPPED FOR THE LAST TIME TO $35.00 SHIPPED...C'MON, SAVE ME FROM EBAY!

2. Black Tuners, only three survived, one suffered a broken tuning post and was trashed, includes rings, nuts, and screws, $10.00 each SOLD!

3. Cream Pickguard with embossed T-Bird, it has a hairline crack that almost disappears when installed, includes original black pickguard screws, $25.00 SOLD!

4. Hipshot Super Tone Thunderbird replacement bridge assembly, never installed, complete with two sets of mounting posts (metric and standard) and hex tool, the cheapest I could find these was $89.00 on eBay, $75.00 takes it. SOLD!

A couple of freebies for any purchase of $25.00 or more, the original VVT knobs, and a couple of experimental electronics cavity covers that didn't work, they fit, but they are the wrong color for my bass. GONE!

Please PM with questions, thank you.

Thanks-for-the-bump bump.

Yeah, those bridges are amazing. Individual saddle spacing and height adjustment, thick and solid, beautifully chromed. The only reason I didn't use it is the traditional aesthetics got the better of me and I stuck with the original three-point bridge design. I kinda regret it already. Anyway, this is the cheapest you'll find the Super Tone brand new. Someone make an offer.

NEVER MIND, SHE'S SOLD TO BOOMBA

Bump.

Gibson bridge, pickguard, and miscellaneous parts to eBay, but I will close auction with no bids if a TB'er wants something.

Everthing appears to be gone with the possible exception of the original three-point bridge in black, price reduced to $55.00 shipped CONUS.

Original three-point bridge in black still available, price dropped to $35.00 shipped, (please don't ask me to drop it further.)

I should note that the bridge has "Epiphone" stamped on the bottom, but it came off a stock Gibson Thunderbird.

Another TB'er just reminded me the black three-point T-Bird bridge is still available.

TTT.

Three-point bridge still available.
