Thunderbird Club

says Burns..

Japanese vintage from the late '60s made by Teisco Gen Gakki, not to be confused with Burns of London. (UK). There were a few Gibson-like solid-body designs back then coming out of Japan but they were primarily Fender-esk as Fenders were more recognizable and popular. The most referenced shape for solid-bodies was a Fender Jazzmaster/Jaguar. Their hollowbody designs reflected/referenced Gibson, Gretsch and Guild guitars/basses.

Action-reaction...repeat. This is how things evolve and creative minds will come up with more specific interpretations/implementation of the laws which will be aimed at better protecting freelance workers rights which is long overdue.

But until then, starve.

Lets please keep the political comments out of the thread, I don't want to risk it's getting shut down. It's best that you all realize I don't moderate this part of the forum and have to abide but the decisions the Moderators make. There are other forums to discuss politics - Take the discussion there.

Incentive to expedite/demand change - better that than accepting a bad situation

Something that got lost because Prince wouldn't allow covers on YouTube but resurfaced, this was recorded over two nights, Happy Thursday.

Want to like it more than once!

Rub it for a while and it will become an extra long scale.

Sounds like some thought they knew what was/is best for others whom they must of necessity deem inferior and unqualified to make their own rational choices as adults.....

Amen for that and Thunderbirds!

Nice. If you decide you don't like it ping me, I have a killer Jaguar SS hot rodded with a custom built John East preamp I'd trade for it.

His name is Omar Findlay. That's about all I can find.

So I looked that name up at lunch. Here’s a fairly recent article he wrote for the L&M website. I wonder if @PillO has come across him? Who knows, maybe he even checks in here once in a while.

Because everyone in Canada knows each other? They actually do.

Are there any basses you don’t have? You all talked me down from that Ray, and it’s much appreciated. I no longer want a Ric. A few more birds will no doubt come along, but I’m not really Jonesing for much else bass wise any more.

So it’s NSMD. Always nice when the wife gets herself something...

Who knows, it says he works at one of the Toronto stores. I know it’s a big city and our friend lives in the burbs, but maybe?

Is that a dog?
Most bassists would probably say my nephew is getting the better end of the bargain. It’s a Squier with a Squier P neck that I cut down to 1.5 nut width. Plays and sounds good, but I never really bonded with it.
I routed a big chamber under the pickguard, but it still weighs 9.5 lbs.

Looks like it is.
