Thunderbird Club

[JJR58]

Yeah, the joys of living with (the equivalent of) a pair of malevolent 3yr olds. The one on the right bites my feet in the middle of the night if she thinks there isn't enough food in her bowl.

And I thought I was getting off easy when my brothers Siamese would attack my feet.

Simba, he wasn't hungry.
Just territorial.

Early 90s Orville by Gibson bird. As a fender fanboy this is my first 'bird. Bought here on TB(thanks,Brett). Haven't tried it yet but super stoked. Obligatory crappy iPhone pic:

I think it VVT. The middle is just missing the cap or is all black.

 

[BklynKen]

Good practice tonight.

Just classic!

They're so cute!

He was lounging about waiting for the magic smoke to come out of the PF500 - he didn't have to wait long.

And it seems it didn't bother him a bit.
On the other hand, the magic smoke, not good at all.

I'm quite envious.

The magic smoke was *slightly* annoying, especially as there was no warranty. The second time it did I decided to cut my losses and bought a valve amp. At least they're *supposed* to glow in the dark.

 

[BklynKen]

And luckily this room had my favorite amp setup. With excellent local beer.

Oh, and the cat contemplating how to attack the ribbon.

The infinity one? She LOVES it.

Ours don't scratch it - it's a combination sun lounger/tunnel extension. They rip chunks off the other two to make up for it.

Wow, she naps on it, plays on it, and scratches the hell out of it. We're on her third or fourth now. But its cool that since it's all corrugated cardboard it's recyclable.

Why not use some kind of brass grille you can cut to perfect size?

Do a Google search on 'brass grille' and plenty of cool stuff comes up - You could probably even throw in a few LED's and a battery in the cavity as well.

 

[hillerup]

Nah not really.

In the spirit of giving away far too much personal info on t'interwebz, we are in a 2BR apartment. One is the bedroom/his wardrobe/cat eyrie and the second is the library/music room/his shoeroom/alternate cat eyrie. As I have mentioned previously, he's (still) a Mod and pretty much thinks about nothing but clothes and shoes. I don't go near them as he's like the dragon Smaug - he'll know if someone touched them. He may be a little obsessed with them, but they are very nice and he's always sharply dressed. When not at work I wear dresses/skirts, as I enjoy the sense of freedom.

Mod styling is great... Always loved that style, but never really could pull it off myself...

Great looking bird! Only needs matching PU rings and gold reflector knobs, and the vintage look is there...
