Thunderbird Club

It's a very mountainous place.

Also, Australia might be a small continent, but it's still a continent. There's a large variety of terrain and climates.


For some reason, this coming from an Austrian is hilarious to me.

Haha maybe that's why. Overexposure and living in one of two nonmountainsites.

It's like being in a relationship with three other people. Hard enough being in a relationship with ONE person.

I know had my fair share of fights, but I still don't get it.
 
Because it's weekend, some Thunderbird porn for y'all. ;-)
A closer look at a Gibson Custom Shop Thunderbird. With block inlays, bound neck and gold plated hardware. A one off, built for Francis Bucholz (Scorpions).

It's still in the planning stages but it looks like I'll be making a pilgrimage to Frankfurt to see Ze Collection next year, amazing what Gibson can do when they want to!

I love the binding!
And the block inlays too, pretty classy looking.
 
Thanks! Go! You live pretty close. Or have you?

Close and close... That's a matter of definition... I live in Denmark, and I've been to Iceland - But not for diving...

I've been diving in Hawaii, Palau, The Red Sea, Thailand and Australia - Warm waters, you know... ;)

So beautiful... Is that a natural mahogany finish? Looks pretty light in colour to me...

Hey!

Take me with you and get me an introduction to Uwe! I could always drive down and meet you guys! :)

And then there's the two high-maintainance founders of the band who used to be in a relationship... :blackeye:
 
Even worse, the two high maintenance founders who are married, to each other. Drove me crazy.

Yes, reoccurring established relationship complications superimposed over similar reoccurring complications within a band. :rollno:
 
First time back after almost two weeks with no real internet access. I cannot go back and read all 75 pages that I missed. I have missed seeing what everyone is up to tho. Did I miss anything important or was it the usual discussions going on?

Just the normal noises in here Andy.
Welcome Back.

Are you implying the usual discussions aren't important? ;) I think Florida is on everyones minds right now.

If you been gone for two weeks.........
I did get an Epiphone Classic Pro Bird.
Then there's hurricane Irma.
And as always, the usual antics.
