If true, even more so. I figured he meant ProBuckers. If they are Thunderbuckers it's a steal at that price ($165x2 PUs).

Yep, but he oughta fix the ad.

$2500 for the NR?! I wonder if I can get $10k for my 2013 lefty. And I think all the NR reissues are 2013s. Some made in 2012, maybe, but I think all the 2013 model year, no?

Whenever I've looked at a "2013", the serial # is 2012.

Yeah, both my Thunderbirds with "2013 Model Year" on the back of the headstock were manufactured in late 2012. One Oct. 31, the other Nov. 30.

Well, as it turns out, my skills at taking pictures with black lights is even worse than my regular picture-taking abilities
(maybe I should use a camera, instead of a phone? )

Nonetheless, it's Thunderbird Thursday, sooo....

 

[MCF]

I've never understood the appeal of Diana Krall. I mean other than being a terrific pianist, a great singer, and stone cold gorgeous, what does she have going for her?

Yep. What in the world does she see in Declan MacManus? He is one of the luckiest men in the world.

I don’t know, looks pretty cool to me...

Yep. They are considered 2013 models, although most, if not all were produced in late 2012. The run was pretty limited.

Just like cars I suppose.

Me too, also.

I wonder if they've ever collaborated on anything. Musically, that is.

I saw Muddy Waters a couple times in the late '70s. He didn't leave anything in the tank when he was on stage. There was no pretense, no production values nonsense, just energy and a lot of it.

My kind of concert.

 

[Klondike]

Hey Klondike! What’s shakin’?
I do too. Their lack of touring over here was a real drag. One band I really wanted to see but never got to. Listen to their catalog regularly and work on some of their songs.

Not a whole heck of a lot. Spending time around the house with the kids, although during the week they are pretty busy with school. One in in the kitchen and the other is in the office/music room, I should probably be playing more, lol.

 

[Klondike]

I discovered them on Little Steven's Underground Garage (Channel 21). Awesome pop/punk.

love LSUG

 

[dukeorock]

Have @dukeorock make the offer.

Haha!

I did speak with the owner of the black Orville. If we met in the middle it would be a 70 mile drive for each of us and he really doesn’t want to ship. I don’t need it, but it sure is tempting

It is probably his incredible data entry skills.

They have collaborated at least once, resulting in twins.

That's his good fortune.
