Not me. I thought I might have actually got it but it went to someone else at the very last second.
Probably best I didn't get it. 3 Thunderbirds in 3 weeks might be considered an obsession.....
No. Even though my wife and I agreed in $255.00 (+shipping) in the end I bid $235.
I did Craiglist for mine and got mine minty, local pickup for $300. A great deal!
Its the only way to go. You bid, people get the rush and bid again. Have to drop it like a bomb.New name... The Sniper!
Too FUNNY! Well at least it's in the family. I had a set price and that was more than I wanted to spend right now after buying a Goth from here and A Classic Pro new.
This one had too much stuff I already planned on doing. If I would have missed out it could have cost me several hundred more to do it.
Figure bass $499+hipshot $120+ brass nut $50 + emgs $200ish + paint $$$ and I could have been out $870 without paint. Which would probably bring it in over $1000.
Now I just have a paint job and 2 or 3 little mods and its done.
Wish there was more than 1 to go around, I hate knowing you guys are bummed out.
Totally not bummed I have 2 I'm really happy with. Besides I would've ripped out the EMGs and went back to stock. I have too many active basses at the moment.
