Which one of my basses would you play?

Saw a bloke busking with a Steinberger this morning. You couldn't hear it mind. He may have it so there's somewhere to put his hands while he's singing How Deep Is Your Love.

That new name will be harder to find on a cheese box...

Yeah. And is a reference to a different book.

*$600 shipped* how about that!

$650 shipped in the continental US!

94/95 Epiphone Non-Reverse Thunderbird. I got her after someone stripped the original finish and did a horrible spray can clear coat.


This is a high quality, urethane refinish and she looks beautiful. I installed a brand new set up Dimarzio pickups. The bass is practically brand new now and only has a couple dings on the headstock, which you can see in the pictures.


Thunderpink comes with a brand new case too.

I still want an 80's vintage Steinberger. It would make these you young uns ask "What the hell is that giant playing?" I'm 6'6", About 290. It would make people wonder.

Also really want a vintage Ibanez Roadstar II, Kubicki Factor, and several others, including a Jackson TBird. Clearly I'm going to need a sugar momma...

All this Steinberger talk. Is the 20/20 anything like them ?

The constant misspelling of the old name is one of the reasons for the change to the new one.

I had no idea those existed. I could have quite happily gone to my grave without knowing they existed.

WHY?

I just assumed they were Gibson’s way of squeezing a bit more from the Stein

Someone just liked a post of mine in the Peavey Megabass Thread from 10+ years ago. Your life will be visible to anyone who ever wants to see it, for as long as there is electricity in the earth.
I'm thinking of moving to some quiet town in Ireland.

Seems as though the mighty Thunderbird is only for the elite few...

I nearly took a photo, just to make it gut-wrenchingly thrilling.
