Not a flattering shot. His head looks tiny!
 
Hello everyone :D
I am a bass player from Serbia (former Yugoslavia), I play Epiphone Thunderbird classic IV with Gibson TB+ humbuckers, I use Elixir stainless steel 45-105 strings, I'm very satisfied with the sound because it's a bass that I really like to play.
Hello from Vancouver, Canada and welcome! Please post some photos of your Thunderbird.
 
The solo indications they added was so cool, gave us a way to identify players and their styles. That album is solid from beginning to end, Roll on down the highway was and is still my favorite, the groove, CF's voice and solo phrasing and all...
It certainly is a solid album. BTO was one of our finest exports!

What kinda self respecting Thunderbird Club member would own a Surf Green P Bass??
This club is going down hill!

Watch it, I’m strongly leaning towards a Surf Green finish on one of my NR builds. :cool:

I don’t remember right now, but I’m sure it’ll come to me.

I hear rumor that cobalt rounds eat frets faster than Willy.
They certainly munched the heck out of my brass nut, didn’t leave them on long enough to find out what they’d do to frets.

That’s a great bass! I just got one a couple of months ago and love the sound of it. Post a picture of the bass and join the club, it’s the best place on the internet to talk about Thunderbird basses.

edit: just saw your picture and video. Excellent playing! Nice tight timing.

Hello, and welcome to the wonderful world of Thunderbirds. You landed in the right place.
Never mind the pet pictures. We easily get distracted, but enjoy that as well.
