Show Me Your Thunderbird Bass

Here's my Epi 5 string nonreverse T-bird, haven't seen anyone post a pic of one like this yet. Don't think they made too many of these. Really a challenge to reach that last tuner....

Quickie digression: what's the neck like on those things? I do know that there's no way I've ever been able to handle a Les Paul, SG, or Explorer with anything resembling ergonomic safety or comfort, as far as their guitars go. I'll hoist a T-Bird whenever I get the chance.
 
Yeah, I have an Epiphone Thunderbird, I bought it used in February. As soon as I saw it I knew I needed it. I'd like to get an Epiphone Blackbird and a Epiphone Non-Reverse Thunderbird too, and about 12 others in different colours and tunings. They're such an awesome bass. Does anyone know when the Gibson Shavo Odadjian and the new Nikki Sixx Thunderbirds are going to be released?
