Thunderbird Club

[hillerup]

Still playing around with the Pelham Blue Epiphone Tbird IV. It sounds &plays pretty darn well, but loses out by a small margin when I pick up one of the Classics.

My Pelham Blue spent it's first night out on the replacement bench as a backup for my Metallic Red, but next gig in a month time it will be the other way around, with the red being the backup. The Classic will have a well deserved break at home with the Gibsons...

I'm currently gigless, or all three would be in constant rotation.

So anyway...

Found a SG-Z for sale. Thoughts? Not a Tbird, but I've kinda wanted one since i saw DM from Clutch rocking one out.

Wow! Never seen those before...

Is that a long scale and with 2 Thunderbuckers?

I try to rotate them, but don't have enough gigs to do so properly...

Been recording demos for the last couple of weeks, and have been using my 50th Anniversary for this - But won't bring it out live for the next show, as it has a small stage and I don't want to risk bumping the head into something or somebody..

As far as i know, factory coil taps too, and switches to go series, parallel, and single coil

That's a pretty nice and cool looking bass - Sort of like a cross between an EB-3 and a Les Paul bass.

Not feeling the red? Agreed, the black Z would be sweet! So what's the deal? Are you getting it?

I saw that, i'm working on it now. I will let you know.

A friend that works in radio gave me tickets for Scorpions/Queensreich. Stocked to see that show.

Lol I have an enabling wife! She wants to see Kid Rock next week. I tell her about C of C and Clutch. She says "maybe we can do both. "

Shes awesome.

That's right Larry, speaking of Birds... It was Friday night and I needed a fight! Turns out, my fight was with a lame crowd.
