Thunderbird Club

Of Course!

We'll probably need a drummer and a guitarist too

No problem - I can double as guitar player...

Not a TBird but WOW!

1980s Gibson Flying V Bass Electric Guitar Signed Motley Crue Nikki Sixx RARE 2 | eBay

Anyone looking for a long-term investment?

Very very nice... And it even comes in an original Epiphone case!

Wonder whatever happened to #NS 001, and if that was a Flying V as well...

It's probably already in a collector's hands I'd imagine.

This has gotta be of interest to someone here in the group:

Thomann has for some reason apparently discontinued this (Harley Benton TB-70VS):

But has replaced it with this one instead (Harley Benton BT-70VS):

View attachment 704865

I wonder why they did the change...?

I LOVE the discontinued one!

Free for all jam on Spinal Tap's "Big Bottom"?

Thanks for posting your Non-reverse body drawing Carlo.

This is gonna be a massive help to my next build too

I can play drums. Looks like we have it covered. Did you expect any less from the Thunderbird club?

Playing drums on any Spinal Tap song is a little risky if you are playing drums, though. I would just as soon have the free-for-all jam on some other song.

Don't think I have those kind of donuts kicking around.

What if we have Roadies standing by with fire-extinguishers, just in case?

 

[mistergoats]

I can play drums, too. We need 8 more drummers for safety.

I need to do a pickup rout for a set of the Epiphone sized pickups. They are the 3 7/8" x 1 1/2" ones. Does anybody know if there is a template for these? I've looked and can't find any. I know there must be some as there are lots of these pickups and their replacements floating around.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Have you checked StewMac?

[fjadams]

Yep checked them first and they don't have it.

Then found this but couldn't figure out which one it would be.

I often play along to this and the TV version of Someday that's on Youtube as well.
Two of my favourite songs- I know they are simple but I just like them.
Always loved Ms Napolitano!

Anyone know what the Bird is in the clip?

Hamer 8-12 string possibly.

 

[Haji]

Cheers for that! I'll definitly have to spend some time at the GC and possibly some other music shops when I get over and then figure out the cost of getting them back to the uk

If you like I can give you a list of shops and addresses to them. I have 'em all saved in my GPS unit in the truck.

I traded it for a Squier P Bass quite a while ago because it was easier to play sitting down.

You can't really dust for vomit and a fire extinguisher won't help in a bizarre gardening accident.
