Thunderbird Club

[RexxRokket]

Hi everybobdy, im wondering about which series would this T-bird be? http://www.amazon.com/Gibson-USA-BA...1403206045&sr=8-1&keywords=gibson+thunderbird

I'm kinda confussed about it, plus I dont really know if this is a short scale one or not, so if someone on here could help me... thanks beforehand

Sorry I've been away! That Warwick is UGLY! A thunderbird would have been better! Glad you had fun!!

I was thinking the same thing. I don't know what it is about Warwicks, maybe it's the flat finish used? Maybe it's the lack of any pop to the bass? They just seem to blend into the background (much like their sound).

That's the real deal, 34" scale, U.S made Thunderbird. Good price too!

If I had known the US birds came in black, I would have ordered that instead of my Classic Pro last month!

I just got a pic of my new bird. I am going to rescue it from Bass NW tomorrow.

Wow! Just... Wow!

I'm glad talent isn't a requirement to own nice basses. I may need some alone time here shortly

What Brand is that?! Is it customised or stock?!

Mike Lull

That's a Lull. A much sought after Mike Lull.

I don't know what it is, but the non-reverse T-birds just aren't appealing to me. They're lacking the exaggerated curves that make the Reverse T-birds so sexy, to me.

I do like that colour, though.

 

[Liam McMonigle]

Even more wow! Why can't I have nice things like this

This bass but reversed would be amazing!

There's three ways to get a Lull that I'm aware of.

1. Marry a rich girl who'll lavish you with gifts.

2. Be a member of a successful band that plays for more than drinks and gas money.

3. Get a good job that pays well either through education or connections or both.

Get at it!

 

[TBird1958]

I think #'s 2 and 3 are your best bet my good Prince

In the long run option #1 will cost you way more than the price of that bass!

 

[BadBassDrummer]

I did a custom order with Mike Lull. I picked the color and had him reverse the headstock. I used option #3 along with old age and singleness to get it. I would be willing to play for drinks should the opportunity arise.

Looks like I won't be getting a Lull. Haha.
