Gibson Thunderbird Base 2013 Red/Black | McQueen Buy N Sell
These days some people might be hoping.
That's quite the beautiful "Base guitar"!
I did see that. Always good to have the, "As described" , element there.Much sarcasm intended. Had to.
I had to wonder what made it base. Probably moving kilos when no one was watching.
Yeah, That one.
Yeah, I see the goof, but we are the base of the music that everything is built on.
What is with the screws on the bridge pickup? That can't be stock...
Already has a Hipshot bridge. That would save me $120. With a discount like that, I would be crazy to pass on it...
No thanks, already participating in one...
Well, it looks like a real signature. Not sure that it is JAE's signature, but it is a signature... Hefty premium for an autograph.
That bass has been for sale for a long time. I’d buy it if there was no signature and a reasonable price
Nice bass but someone scribbled on it.
Since I'm not really interested in it(OK, I am but can't justify it), I hadn't looked closely at the bridge pup-I never use the bridge pup-but them screws ain't right.
Took a look at that one but was concerned by the string height off the fretboard. Says it has a brand new set up, but I'd have a problem with the action. Don't know if it can be lowered, didn't see the condition of the truss but the bridge isn't set up ideally either.
Looks like the previous owner flipped the threepoint out for a hipshot. Might or might not be an improvement depending on what camp you're in, but it's no longer stock and the price is at least $500 higher than the typical going rate for a stock 2013 goldy. Does look like it's in nice shape though.

Not to mention it's in Italy ($178.90 shipping) and is about $1k overpriced... (I assumed you were being facetious...) However, the gold HS bridge with black bolts and gold Grover tuners are very tasteful.

That would be an improvement.
