Thunderbird Club

Looks great. Your pickups just have two screw adjustments. I thought the 70s all had three. I apparently need some enlightenment.

No, you're correct. That's an '89 with Lull pickups, IRL it's much more yellow than your '76 - strange how Nitro does that.
 
happy bunny weekend everyone!..

Good evening folks, I hope all are enjoying a relaxing weekend. Sincere thanks to all who shared advice on my hand held recorder, and my strap lock question. I haven't bought a recorder yet, but had the locks installed on the Explorer. A trip to home depot and a little time with my bench grinder solved the screw size issues. The strap I use with my Thunderbird seems to fit perfectly. Great fun to play it standing without wondering about the strap.
Thanks again for all the good advice. I greatly appreciate it.
 
This pickguard can be found for sale?
eBay for example or other places?

An original Bicentennial PG is rare, and expensive. They do show up on ebay now and then, but it will not fit your Epiphone, size and screw hole arrangement are completely different.

FYI, blank PGs are available from various sources. So are the decals. You can do a DIY fairly inexpensively.
