That is also my new word for today....T-Birdness.......try it. It rolls off the tongue. T-Birdness......

T-bird-Brain?

at first I thought it said Goth black, duh

nice choice of color, but I prefer my birds NAKED.

the black one on the right is not an EPI, but for me, they are sexy beasts without the guards.

( the flash made the screwholes look a lot whiter then they are in normal light )

Does anyone know where i can get a truss rod cover for my white thunderbird ? I found one on ebay but the seller wouldnt ship to england

 

[OhioBassFanatic]

Sorry I do not, I once made one. I bought plastic and trimed it to size. It still looks great

Yeah I still get the updates daily about what is going on in the thread. When I newbie arrives, I am usually there after a day or two to number them. But sorry I haven't been in the regular discussion of things.

I have been working on a p-bass project lately. Though don't worry, my T-bird is in the church office and I play it every day.

church huh, then you should sell it to me, so I can make a youtube video of me burning it, and i'll use the church as a background. birds were meant for the devil ( as in heavy-metal ), not plying jesus music ---that is UNLESS your jamming in a baptist band..they DO know how to GET -IT-ON

It gets played more than just worship music. When I get together to jam with people at the church we have been doing ska and punk with the T-Bird. I would say that yeah, a Goth T-Bird doesn't exactly belong at church, but the burst one is pretty good.

I just wanted to harass you... I see now you use the church's facilities, and don't jam in the choir's "jesus band" with a devil bass.

I do see your point about the SB Bird, it is light and "happy", compared to the black goth devil-bird.

I have the Hipshot bridge on my Epi. I really like it. Lots of string adjustment if you need.

someone traded me a chrome allparts 3 pointer for the stock black one, and it DID make a sustain difference for sure, so I imagine if I used my EPIBird for more than a toy, I would use the hipshot, as I'll bet that one is even better.

 

[Gougedeye]

I must have missed this one...can I have a number?

 

[vicvarado]

Didn't know this thread existed a search might have helped but oh well, may I have a number...yeah I like to catch up on z'ssss when I'm playing, nah, just my bass face!

 

[Zoidberg523]

I done have my web cam running right now.... =[

But, I found this pic of my bass's twin, and the case is the twin of the one I keep my Goth in! May I have a number, or do I have to wait till my cam is workin' again?
