Thunderbird Club

And they probly have a storeroom full of the ones they didn't sell:unsure:

I doubt that. They sold all they made and they come up for sale from time to time.

Such beauties!

Back to the quality discussion. This is the guitar I mentioned. It's not a Super 400. So sue me. But it sure is beautiful.

You can't see all that inlay work when you are playing it, but so what. It is still spectacular. I don't know how this got made, for who, or why, but I'm sure glad it did.

Just looking at your avatar, have you seen these guys by any chance? Came across them in the GP


IIRC, this is just a "brand" that fills vacant/rotating member spots with smaller folks to mime KISS tunes......When I first saw it I thought it was an actual band.
but it's a minority group (no pun intended) getting out there and defying social stigma. I wasnt aware they mimed but what the hell :)

They have been around a while. I think that if you were putting it together now, perhaps it would have to be an Alice Cooper tribute called Mini Cooper.

I'm here all week folks, don't forget to tip your waitress.
 
Hello Thundom of Kingbirds! I come bearing news on my Tigerbird. Recently took it out to check what fixes i needed to do - turns out i had already fixed it, just needed to raise the saddles a little bit to compensate. Action is still low enough with a slight buzz on the headstock end of the neck. But man it plays & sounds like thunder. With all 3 pickups, it's a nice flat balance - not muddy, not overly treble. It's really tight over the spectrum & it's fun to play. Definitely using this on my band's album
