Miles was doing what?

Miles was doing what?

There’s photographic evidence of which I speak. You were trying to find parking.

Here's to posting when in a hurry and not thinking it through.

#813 V Tbirds (or VII birds if Jbirds or Pbirds are included). So maybe a bad idea, I was just curious how many birds club members have.

Currently 0.635 birds. Under construction.
Formerly one Epi IV. Sold.

Just this one, a 1990

One is great, and a good start. My point is, I'd like to see the numbers of birds by member on the club page (just numbers, not a breakdown by style or brand). Yes, I realize it would be a lot of work and I'd be glad to help if I can.

5 Epi and 2 Gibsons. I’m a lightweight in this group.

# 693: 4 Epis and 2 Grecos. All reverses, as should be.

I saw it too. On the interwebs.

Do you mean on the club wiki pages? Not much work for anyone. It’s a wiki.

I could give you numbers but it changes frequently, so not sure how valuable it would be.
I’m currently sitting at 30 including two at various stages of build but not including a $250 Eppi Custom Shop (with the LP style pickups) purchased earlier today that will arrive in a few days and be the basis for a hot rodding experiment.

LOL - too much truth in that!

There was this thread earlier

Thread 'How many Thunderbird basses do you own?'

Apr 9, 2025

This is in reference to Gibson Thunderbirds and similar basses. This does not include Grestch Thunderbirds, which are different beasts entirely.

You're not diving in Puget Sound today, it's "warmed up" now that its Summer

I dove in Puget Sound last Sunday and will dive at Posession Point, Whitney Island next Saturday. No diving this weekend because there was a show. We played at 5:30 and I hauled no gear except a Bird, the doghouse, stands, and the wireless stuff. I could get used to a light load like that. And I am already home by 7:30. Life is good!

But you are right about Puget Sound this time of year. Visibility is awful. It will start to improve again in the fall.

Pretty close.

Seventeen plus a busted up ‘17 VP saved for a project. Sorry Rich, I will be needing the bridge.

Say the word and I’ll pick up the 360.

Maybe. But your two Gibsons are both iconic Thunderbirds. Both worth far more than you paid for them.
