I saw that elsewhere. Really fair price here as far as I'm concerned. Some don't like the sidewinders, but I think that sound great. Slightly different, but still sounds like a thunderbird and great.
The bass has landed and is about to have a chrome swap with his silver burst. He threw on some gold dials after putting it together and he also said the action was great.
Not sure about you guys, but I hate the time in between shipping a bass and having the bass delivered. So many things can go wrong... this transaction went great!
That looks so good, I almost wouldn't care what it sounds like! Downright stunning!
Hmmm. A VP in that color would simply be out of control with all that chrome!!!

Like Tom Petersson's would be even better!
Flats on a Thunderbird? Nahh!
That's what I thought when I bought Embassy3 for parts. As you know, it is so nice I decided to keep it whole. I've had it a while now, and I get it, the Chrome lights feel and sound so good on it, I can't imagine taking them off. It adds a thickness to an already powerful sound. I can't wait til it sees band practice, whenever that day comes.
Anyway, I get it, flats and Thunderbird PUPs are awesome.

I love seeing his genuine happiness at just milking those tones.

I may have missed something as I have to blast through some posts to catch up, What bass is that? The wood (ahem) looks real smooth and nice(wondering what type it is). Please post more pictures, Im very curious. Got my ears perked up!
Somthin' like that! But the chrome would really look great. Those had nickel. I can go for gaudy at times.
It's personal preference and what one is shooting for band context wise--but I'm eternally thankful none of my Thunderbirds ever sounded like that clip.
Yep. That's reason #423 why a person needs more than one Thunderbird.
Resistance is futile!Another flats believer? say it ain't so!!!
Rub it in why don’t ya. You should post a vid like @godofthunder59 occasionally does. I’d love to hear it in action.
That’s local to you @Chucky Stiletti. Do you know that bird?
I haven't seen that one......may be one of Tiran's...
Hey T-Bird club. I shared about this bass a while back, but now it's pretty much complete. It's a Bluesman Vintage Deville T2. Should be in my hands next week. Those gorgeous Lollar T-Bird pickups qualify me to post it here...lol. Really excited about this one.
