Thunderbird Club

[fasterpussycat]

Took back the two Behringer pedals today. It was an experiment, and when doing good (well designed) experiments you can learn as much from "failure" as you can from "success". So I picked up a used MXR bass distortion. We'll see how that sounds. The Yoot Oobs I watched have me convinced that I would prefer it to the Boss bass distortion. But how it works with everything else is always the question, thus the experiments.

This one?

It's RAT based, designed with Fuzzrocious, which will make it excellent and gnarly.

Brothers and sisters with tatts, I’m considering this as my first for the right shoulder. Am I asking for trouble with all that black?


And yes, Bird logo will be imprinted at some point...

Depends how big you're going with it, but very cool!

A pick man, eh? Right on. Wear it!

 

[Engle]

You could always do a variation of it like Darkglass did.

A circle of frowns! I can’t unsee it so not gonna tattoo in on me.

Couldn't get a pose with the Thunderbird. She didn't want to risk getting upstaged.

Smart girl, though I'll argue she's stiff competition. Good looking cat!

Epiphone or Gibson?

Whatsever in the VP!!!

I was considering a bass clef tattoo, but I noticed when wearing a bass clef T-shirt that it looks like a frowning face from some angles

I have 2 bass clef tattoos. If I get another I'm going to begin to look like I'm wearing pajamas...

Had those on my 122s - they were a bit finicky to keep in tune but when adjusted properly they were smooth as silk.

They ere on my ‘59 544. I believe that was the first year; they used a Zenith before that.

 

[dagrev]

Yes they do!

A while back someone asked about TI Flats and if they sound good on a T-Bird. I put some TIs on my 64 Epi Embassy (Bat-Bird) today and it sounded really, really good. I was impressed. Really impressed. Thick and full, with some nice clearness on top when playing higher. I just bought some GHS Progressives for it due to the Alloy 52, but they won't arrive till Tues. But, I may go back to the TIs they sounded so good. Also found myself using more of the neck pup only when not using a pick. Thunderous punch like a T-bird should sound.

 

[MCF]

Thanks! That’s with a sub drummer.

Wow. You couldn’t tell. That band must be a blast to play with. Love the horns.

I never did hear back from Jason, or from my inquiry on Fret Nation, I figure he may just be busy.

You too, huh? Still waiting on two replies from over a week ago. Used to never have nothing but great experience with him. But when you get too busy to do business, that problem will fix itself in a way you won't like.

He's got a bigger boat, more lines to keep trim. He'll get it together.

Can I have that bass?
....That's what I thought.....It was worth a shot.

The P1800 is the only 'sports' car I've ever really wanted. Long b4 I saw "The Saint" in reruns. Now I don't think I could get my froggy body into one.

The P1800s, at least early ones, were built in Britain, of all places.

I hope so. I loved dealing with him and getting his solid insight on things.

 

[dagrev]

Two of my favorite things: Great Value and The Roach Patrol.

Shoes--kind of. If those things are around you might consider some real shoes!

 

[Count Bassie]

Lol, this looks just awful...

I would consider it if it was the actual size of a pick. In fact.., I may just have this done on me left wrist... (would be my first also)

Testing, one-two, testing... (yah, shoe... sue me)

Ye have not because you ask not.
