Thunderbird Club

EICHs are the bomb. I played through a couple at Schroeder’s shop in Hacienda Heights when he was a distributor.

They are nearly impossible to get in the states now.
And the prices on their cabs have gone up quite a bit.
I got a great deal at Thomanns while I was in Germany.
In hindsight, wish I would have gotten 2 of them.

In honor of our Northern brothers. I even remembered before seeing Irv's post above! The 8 cylinder is firing on at least 7 today.

And a couple more for the Canucks. What's needed for a well dressed bird.

I've been using in-ears lately and I hear more of the clack/clank. The result is I don't play as hard and burn out my right hand.

I’m consciously trying to play lighter and let the amp do the work, but when it gets loud it’s hard to lay back….

I have a strap like that! My oldest ('74?) now used exclusively on my '64 II.

Added the metal Aztec-ian buttons at one point I did some leather tooling on the edges. It originally was more the hue of that one. It's seen a lot of action! I should give it a good leather cream rub-down!

I go that route - it allows for broader technique/articulation and saves your hands.

I ordered mine through their website in Germany. It took a while to arrive and shipping wasn't cheap but it was worth the wait & expense.

what kind of bass when you jump to six string?

 

[Miles_ONeal]

Ford, Dodge and Chevy.

The three pickup red bird on Reverb finally dropped to $3K and sold. Heck, I’d have considered it at that price.

I hope our Canadian bird brothers and sisters had a great day!

Garage psych rehearsal, out the Classic Pro through this, the GK set for "AAAAARRRrrrrkccche!!!." You know, the hitting the rails thing. Sounded pretty gnarly.

Broughton hpf>Sansamp BDDI>GK400RB>Hartke Kickback-12 enclosure w/ Hartke neo 12. The Hartke head is going to the shop, but this works. A little janky looking, but it sounds good.
Your gonna have to picture the Thunderbird, I'm sorry
I really like pushing that little GK head! Sounds really good, like musical dirt that got rubbed in your face... It's an '85, and it looks it- but it's got all its knob caps!

I wouldn't know anything about that!

I bet it blends nicely with that red dress in your current avatar!

Look! The elusive Tiran-o-bird in his natural element!

Yes (thank you for enriching what little brain I have left) , I had to look that up, it's true.
