Thunderbird Club Pt. II

[BlueTalon]

Can I has a number plz?

 

[BlueTalon]

Here's my Epi T-Bird...........may I have a number please?

I love that pick-plate! Very original.

 

[EdHunter]

I think I finally see the point of my Epi! Over the last 6 months, I've been using my P almost exclusively, I took my Epi (with flats) along to a rehearsal for the school musical, fiddled with the amp for a bit of high end, and it was beautiful! Just by keeping the back pickup turned full up, and adjusting the tone knob it covers a wonderfully smooth "Total Eclipse of the Heart", the heaviest ever "Hungry Like the Wolf" and even gets nice and close to a decent McCartney tone for "All you Need is Love". And I even managed to sort out the horrendous neck, sanding it down from a deep V shape to a much softer D.

It's official, I am born again!

I started into t birds in novemeber buying a early 2000s bird , sold it to get a customized greco , then moved onto a 2008 t bird I made a nice profit off.

Regretted selling it right after the guy left last month, then the search for a gibson t bird at 900$ or less began. Thats not the easiest task in my price range , but I just won this niki sixx blackbird for 845$ shipped, its worn but if there are no cracks i think I did pretty dam well.

That's a good price - I was watching that one, and had thought of picking it up just to harvest & swap the pickups with my IV

Thanks! Happy to be here!

 

[BluesBear]

Snohomish county is representin'!

Perhaps we should call ourselves SnoBirds?

 

[bassplayerbob]

Who will get the 100 spot??

 

[Fab Superlative]

Oh, what the hey!
#100, s'il vous plaît.

 

[TBird1958]

Rare 'Birds befit a special number, 100 it is!
1 of 400 Gibson short scale Thunderbird and the bass that RAWRS a Greco Thunderbird II, completely awesome in every way!

 

[A-Step-Towards]

That's a good price - I was watching that one, and had thought of picking it up just to harvest & swap the pickups with my IV

Yeah I was suprised it went that low, I bid more.

 

[Doragon]

Finally took some quick pics of my bird.. I just love the look of the fretboard !!!

Those Goth fingerboards look like they would be good candidates for a fretless bird

i have the same cabinet. love mine....

 

[TBird1958]

Doragon, Nice Epi! Kind of making me think I should pick one up!
Would you care for a #? Let me know and 101 will be yours

 

[Doragon]

sure I'll grab a number tho sometimes I think 5150 would be a better number for me !!!!!

 

[Doragon]

i have the same cabinet. love mine....

The B212 is actually my practice cab...I use the new TB153 3 way cab that Avatar came out with when I do play out. Dang thing is awesome !!! Highly recommend that one

 

[TBird1958]

sure I'll grab a number tho sometimes I think 5150 would be a better number for me !!!!!

And done!

You're #5150, I've put you on the roll, Welcome here!

 

[Doragon]

Thank you my friend....on a side note, you probably heard it a million times, you inspired me to grab a bird. Looking at your arsenal and checkin your band out is what made me grab it. I am a big nut for 80's music and I really dig N.H. set list.
