Thunderbird Club

[z009]

While the electronics aren't in yet... The treebird is basically done and I finally feel like I can ask for a number! Just needs stickers and a Larry V made pickguard now

Looking sweet!

Was that a Goth to start with or a regular bolt on Epi? Either way, nice transformation!

When you're ready for a PG, let me know. On eBay I charge $44 with choice of TBird vinyl shipping included, CUS. On TalkBass it's $35. I actually make less but that's cool since I want to give Thunderbird Club guys a good deal. That goes for TBird vinyls as well. On eBay they're $8.50, here $6 CUS.

goth body regular neck... The neck was quite the tight for but with a little work it was fine

That's interesting; I woulda thought a standard Epi neck would be thinner at the heel because it's thinner at the nut. Learnt sum'n today!

Thanks, good sir.
I just ordered one of the smaller ones in chrome silver- my Cruiser is silver!

It's on its way! Just shipped moments ago thanks to my lovely wife.

My potential new Bird is in the country!
Making it's way slowly through several intermediaries.
Will depend on the final price, but fingers crossed.
Don't tell anyone.

 

[Larry V]

Best of luck. Sure hope you get her!

Me too, Larry.

Refresh my memory - What Bird are you getting, and from where are you getting it?

Your memory is fine. I hadn't said.

Ahhh....

That explains why I couldn't find a post of you mentioning anything about it the last couple of pages...

When will you unravel the mystery?

 

[Mark Cult]

Ooooooooh, the suspense is killing me.
On another note, I got given a 2x10 Peavey cab and a Peavey Mark VI head that were faulty. Cleaned them all up, and voilla... its a bit loud. Haha

I don't want to say anything too much until the Bird is mine. Hopefully that will be soon.
A Bird in the hand............................

Well I guess I can show a pic now I have paid for it and it is about to ship. More to come when the Bird lands.

This is not the one on eBay with the twisted neck.

Edit- 1977 Greco TB II
