Thunderbird Club Pt III

Status
Not open for further replies.
Posted this up for grabs. Getting hard to locate in stores.
Great price for a barely played 2011 LE Cherry Bird. $1,275.00 shipped in USA.
I just have bad G.A.S. pains for this U.S. Lakland Decade. So I am letting go of my new Gibson LE bird.
Might very well pick up a Lull Tbird down the road if funds allow.
Passing this headsup onto Tbird clubbers for consideration ...

Put the finishing touches on it yesterday. Intonated and set up perfectly with the Allparts chrome replacement 3 point bridge. Sounds killer with the thunderbuckers!



Awesome! I bet it sounds great.....A modern classic :hyper:
 
This is my Orville bird...88 or 89...not really sure...had is since 96...Sounds and plays great..

Nice! Kinda rare here in the States too. Super nice QC, great players, very hot pickups - a dynamite 'Bird you got there.

Welcome okc-zee, you're #199!

Well, as they say here on TB, you don't own a bass unless you have the pics, so here she finally is, received my Epi T-bird Pro IV today!! I am absolutely stoked with the vintage burst, it's just the right darkness for my taste, and the back of the neck looks killer as well.

Plugged her in, and after minor intonation adjustments, the factory set up was pretty much bang on for my tastes :hyper: So far so good, had a quick play around with the 2 band EQ and tried the tones soloing both pups then blended - this is a versatile bass! Even has a somewhat respectable slap tone :p

I'll be joining the club! Just sent payment to 57pbass for this sweet Lull T-Bird he had in the classifieds!

That is one georgeous bass! Two new Lulls in the club :hyper:

I'm really interested to know what you think of it, please post your thoughts when time allows, meanwhile Welcome here, you are # 200!

@ Aussiebasshero, that's one very fine looking Epi too, congratulations! Rock that bass :bassist:
 
I went in, made the final layaway payment, and picked up my new Thunderbird today. Epiphone Limited Edition Custom Shop model, alpine white finish with all chrome hardware and pickups. Dead mint condition too. It plays great, and sounds phenomenal.

(apologies for the crappy cell phone pic)
