Thunderbird Club

Not to sound like the Grinch myself, I'd like to say that the adults in our circle of family and friends decided long ago that we have enough and that we would spare one another from that pressure of the Holidays. We give the kids in the family, envelopes with cash which I know it's hard to believe, but they absolutely love. As for we adults, we bring wine, champagne, gift boxes of seasonal snacks and pot luck dishes when we visit each other and dinner is involved. So much better for all involved, IMO.

...but if anyone wants to buy me a Thunderbird, we can bend the rules! :)

Sometimes, I've got nothing to say but I feel the need to yell into the void and see if it answers back... this is one of those times. :beaver:

We have a beaver emoji, so I used it :wacky:

A question. As far as I know, all neck through birds necks have a slight angle to them to accomodate the 3-point bridge. 1) Am I correct on this and 2) What about the epiphone pro IV that has a regular flat mount bridge, which should be sitting lower than the 3-point? I myself prefer a flat bridge where the strings are closer to the body.

Me too! I always liked their biggest hit - "It's Your Life", but wasn't versed on them until much later when I got there greatest hits album/CD. Became an instant fan - so many great songs and their dynamics and production both live and in the studio were top-notch. This was a cool vid too, I love the uber close-ups of the in-the-field 'sweaty' black keys being struck and the critters doing their critter thing. I'd rank Talk Talk pretty high in the "80's band" category.
