Thunderbird Club

[JIO]

Good point. Then again, BMM may look that way just by being BMM. The original white is growing on me more and more. As the pg is staying white does it need a tug bar? That's the next big decision.

yes.

What a great pic! At first I thought it was a painting! And I like the way his bridge is being 'anchored'!

It's officially Thunderbird Thursday here on the Best Coast.

Paying tribute to our Queen with a Butt Bow Bird...

....and a cold bucket of fried chicken...

(Notice the naughty little twinkle in the Colonels eyes and the smile on his face . I think he knows exactly what went down that night but he ain't talkin, he remembers what happened to that blabber mouth club member #62).

#62. Way before my time. Take it they did something in appropriate.

For @Gaolee My granddaughter has a load of pink things. Here's a picture of a few of them, might find a pg colour here.

Dude! The shoes are behind the dropcloth. Red paint, not blood. Sorry. Every pair of shoes I own, including motorcycle boots, all fit between the paint and shop vac stuff on the floor, with a variety of fasteners, clamps and other knuckle dragger things on the shelves above them. I make a lousy mod.

It arrived by UPS yesterday at about 1 pm. I snuck out of work early and threw it all back together. Amazingly enough, it made sound just like it was supposed to when I plugged it in, and it intonated perfectly right away, too. No problems with then neck adjustment. I expect to have to adjust it a bit soon, but maybe not.

I played a private party last night, and it was the bass I played. The pixie dust '01 stayed in its case, just waiting for this one to falter. It didn't falter, so the PinkBird was on the whole night. It has tapes on it now, but I'm not convinced I like the way it sounds with those. There is too much muddy orange in the sound of those strings on this bass, at least for now.

It crossed the country in its case. I had it out at work for a few hours, and then it was out getting reassembled and played most of the time up until about 10:00 last night or so. It's in its case now, but it will be back out this evening, and will mostly stay out of its case for more than a week. With any luck, that will solve any imprinting issues.

Your TBird came out great, Will! Congrats!

BC? Doesn’t look like anywhere in British Columbia...

There's that one beach in BC that gets enough sun to support palm tree growth... surprised you've never heard of it.

80 degrees is more than enough for me. Luckily it doesn't get much higher than this in the UK. Also we don't get extremely cold winters either, generally speaking.

.

That’s great, congratulations!

While 10% would be better, I’d take 117F/25% over 95F/95% (normal when we lived in GA) any day.

Yes! Any day.

View attachment 3501878 pretty lawless here....gotta love it....little sign of any type of authority....abandoned trailer park squatted by eurohippies and not a peep from anyone...trippy

Take more pics. I need better desktop images!

 

[JJR58]

Yes! Any day.

I'm so done with this summer already. Never was a warm weather person to begin with.

 

[Larry V]

It doesn't seem quite right. I would probably file the slot a little. I'm also kinda anal about some things. Not others.

AHHHHHHEMMMM!

I love the warm and hate cold (why I won't live north of the Ohio River). But I also hate miserable, muggy, can't breath humid hot. Other than that, I'll all for more warmth and things being green not dead!

#62. Way before my time. Take it they did something in appropriate.

#62 is the reason that we discourage the use of the search function.
#62 was the originator of the grass skirt
#62 noted that the F in Fender looks like a 7
#62 started the fallacy that Thunderbird headstocks fall off simply by being looked at the wrong way
#62 helped design the Thunderbird VP
#62 died in an unfortunate drumming accident
#62 is the reason that we will never see a Pelham Blue Thunderbird
#62 was a big fan of cold fried chicken and roofies

The Kat has a new tail.

Yay!

And a stylish new tail at that!

Yes, #62 never existed - solidly inappropriate.

Reminds me of an episode of The Prisoner.... LOL
