That's looking really great. What bridge is going in there?

I don't remember, its with the bass. It looks just like a euro bridge

Oh, whatever the stock one was?

I guess that one control hole is for kill switch?

No, the stock one was like a fender. I got one like a Spector bridge. the body was routed for it. the hole is for a single vol. It will have 80s emgs and an SNC preamp. Schallers up top.

Fire. That's a flashy red, and somehow the black burst around it makes it look a little like a hot and dangerous fire-related event.

Well, that may very well happen

Ok I know this sounds incredibly dumb. Nevermind, been doing this rodeo since 1979. Head is like a flat tire is all.

Well, I did my best to try and give you a hand. The post is here somewhere...

Lol, I'll find it. Am suddenly a dolt. Wth...
Ok got it! Wow.

 

[wolfkeller]

Always a challenge. That's what eye patches are for!

I can only get into nothing but trouble by saying this, but, handy little box.

So I’m not big on peddles, but the way you all wax on about the merits of those filter things, maybe.

A bit of kink never hurt anybody.

Especially around here.

You are short a few. Get with it! You need three or four more for a complete set.

New red Thunderbird! Actually came in yesterday. Rotosound 66 LF installed on 6/6

Fingerboard *needed* conditioning badly. Quick application of dunlop conditioner seems to have done the trick.

Really digging this. All dials up full except the bridge volume just ever so slightly back from the 10 gives a noticeable bump in the output.

Got the relief just about good, going to see if the new strings pull it back. Gotta get the bridge sorted out but the babicz is a big improvement over the tripod.

Feeling good about this one.

The new red ones look great. And they sound like Thunderbirds, so that part is covered. Congratulations!

We're all going to hell...

It will be a good party when we all get there.

Yep.
