Thunderbird Club

Hello,
I’ve had a serious hankering for a Lull NRT4 for awhile and I thought I would reach out and see if anyone in the club may have on they’re considering selling.
I also have this fine Lakland PJ in Sherwood Green I’d be willing to trade towards.
Thanks!
That might be a tough one around here, but you never know. Looking for a 'Bird proves that you are on the road to enlightenment, though.
 
You must be joking! This lot in a choir, in church? :roflmao: Like putting a monk in a brothel!
I find that being observant makes blasphemy much more satisfying. I'm a little uneasy about the lack of purgatory to sweat it all out, but that's just one of those things, y'know.
 
:laugh:Basically the guy is selling three Gibson bridge mounting bolts for $50. :rollno:
:eek:The bridge body is broken in half and unusable, :(the saddles are missing, :confused:there aren't any intonation screws, o_Oand the threaded body ferrules are not included in the sale.
:***:Other than that it's a perfectly good 3 point bridge (sarc off). :poop:
Hey, where is your sense of humor? That must be a joke. Really. Isn't it....?
 
Agree, but you have to keep in mind those British beans are actually the original recipe imported into the UK by Heinz (from Pittsburgh) over 120 years ago. Today we literally have dozens of canned (tinned) bean types and recipes.
If we want to make a proper fryup however (you know, shrooms, tomatoes black pudding, danish bacon etc.) nothing beats the old Heinz recipe that's only available to us at the British specialty shop..

You would never have 'shrooms' in a full English or full Scottish (can't speak for a full Welsh), you would have 'mushrooms' or possibly even 'mushies'. You might also have Scottish sausage (aka Lorne) and a couple of 'rounds' of Scottish batch bread or tattie scones.
 
I would probably not be on TB if it weren't for TTBC. The genpop pretty much reflects social media, which i don't really need. I'm just tired of people saying crap online they wouldn't say to my face. That doesn't happen here.

^This. There are a couple of other places here that I like. I am partial to Telecaster Basses as well as Gibsons.

As usual, lots of words to sell something.
Mandatory inflamatory opinion included.

“Respectfully, studio musicians who play with their fingers live have no idea that we can’t hear what they’re playing, because there’s no actual definition on the note that’s coming out. You can do that and love it and have no shagin’ idea what he’s playing, but you love that low end, or you can be like Chris Squire and have a very bright sound, where you can hear the attack and therefore hear the note that’s actually being played. I mean, a piano is a percussive instrument, and you can hear every single note because there’s a definition when the player hits the note.”

Mushrooms here too, a full Welsh is much the same as the English version but you get more sausages and a real free range egg :) The Scottish breakfast is the best by a mile, Scottish sausage is a work of genius. We're off up there on Wednesday morning for 2 - 4 weeks depending on the weather, I have 3 things on my foodie list, sausage, a smokie and a pint of heavy

Restaurant at WDW called Raglan Road. Irish soda bread w/ a Guiness and olive oil dip and many other scrumptious goodies including a real bread pudding. SO light and fluffy-NOT!

So you think it's a keeper?

Light and fluffy? I was buying batch bread until the Mod put his foot down and told me it was fvcking horrible. But I like it... Nothing beats a slice of toasted housebrick.

Opinions are like ...er...Pie holes everybody has one.There's an interesting video floating around of Carol Kaye giving,no, trying to give Simmons a lesson. Hard to teach an old know-it-all .............well,anything.
