Anyone getting flooded with pop up ads? Every 30 seconds I get this ad for La Liga and have to wait for the close X to appear. Only on my iPhone.

And here they are from the Gibson site. And I checked as recently as last Saturday for any news. It doesn't look like they distinguish between bridge and neck.

I'm going to order a vintage one direct from Gibson. Im hoping George can help me install it in the BaCH when I go down for my soldering lesson.

This is so awesome of Gibson to finally be offering these.

And vintage Alnico pickup is ordered. $139.64 with CA tax and with free shipping. It'll go in the BaCH II. I'm excited.

Nope. But Roger @Count Bassie has the same issue. I use Safari on my iPads and iPhone.

Sweet! Are you going to use a pickup ring?

Trying Ad Blocker free version. So far, no pop ups.

I'm not seeing a preorder option to distinguish between neck and bridge winds.

All the TB+ I've seen so far have been identical between bridge and neck.

 

[WillyW]

Aren't the tb+ what I have in my CP?

are these current ones black plastic covers or shiny metal?

No bird content, but set up for the last show of the tour

Great pic! Album cover material right there. I'm sure it'll be a great show.

None here, I use a free version of ad blocker on my iPad.

I put one on the BaCH when I got it. I love this Thunderbird. It's set up with nice low action, has a fast neck, and a belly cut (it's either a version 2 or 3).

Yes. They look like plastic. The vintage are in chrome.

"sounds" promising "looks" promising….who cares as long as we gig…

In the description it states .......

"Position ANY" on both pickups.

Hope it all comes together!

Seems to me that tells you something. It's the positioning that matters.

Correct, Neck or Bridge.

hmmm…..surplus thunderbucker?..…

Thunderbird I! I like the look! Not sure I would get by with only the bridge pickup 'though. Maybe if it was positioned a bit more towards the neck.
Hmmm, now I got the gas for Rickenbacker 4000. I'd definitely get by with that.
Would love to try the set neck version.

 

[Miles_ONeal]

Yeah. Me too also.

Oh, yeah?!? Well ditto for me!

I don't think supporting members get those. Imagine how bummed I am.
