Thunderbird Club

meaning it’s an Australian term for jeans?….everyone one my parent’s age called them that growing up…

nah, not particularly Aussie. My Dad would call jeans dungarees occasionally (don’t think he ever wore them though) but jeans just as often. Everyone younger I ever met just uses jeans.

Just called Bibs here. Every guy should have at least one set. Fantastic for working. But we buy them in the right length.:D My wife dislikes them, having seen them about every day growing up in the country. But she's softened. Good thing because I am going to wear mine on occasion.

Overalls where I come from.

Bibs n braces or overalls. Usually not blue denim, though these ones are.

I’m Dean Martin to this group’s collective Jerry Lewis.
Hmmm, I was thinking more along the lines of Bevis and Butthead. :roflmao:
Tube/Tubeless Tuesday.
For @Chucky Stiletti.
Think with the right pre-amp, and cab.
Preferably my HT322.
A TBird would slam through such a rig.

The HT322 is an absolute beast! I run a 400watt SS head thru mine with the amp volume set around 2 (out of 10) and the onboard volume of my Greco IV or my Korean or China Capped Goth at about 3 and it nearly tears the walls down. I’ve had neighbors notice (inside their houses) that I’m playing bass inside my house if I raise my onboard or amp volume any higher. The BlingBird is actually the loudest of my Tbirds when the onboard controls are maxed. That Berg cab just delivers in spades with zero distortion or farting. Shame it’s such a pain to move, my 610 Berg is 1000% more portable.
