The Thunder-backer bass
Gibson-like non-reverse body, and a Ric-like neck/headstock.

Built by luthier Bob Stiehler in Nevada.

His website is here:

https://www.christianguitarworks.com/Home_Page.php

I have no affiliation. I just happened to stumble upon it while websurfing, and thought I would post up for TB'ers.

That is a nice looking bass. Too bad rickenbacker will probably sue him if he tries to sell it...

I went to Bass pro shop and to my surprise they didn't have a single bass guitar.
