Thunderbird Club

And that is actually quite wierd, considering Thomann sold them way back, as far as I remember...

But I've never seen them on the German Ebay, and had to have mine shipped from the U.S....

According to the seller, the neck pickup should have a red lead on it while the bridge pickup should be black. both of mine arrived with black leads. Seller is shipping me a proper neck pickup. I was hoping he would let me keep the extra bridge pickup but he is asking me to send it back (he will cover shipping) not sure of the best way to ship to china.

Great... Then I have one of each, and now I know which one is supposed to go where... :)

I've played plenty of Ps. QPs just seem to be the most noticeable in the mix. At least in louder rock. R&B is another story they're are better Ps for that.

I had several pickups in my P (ash/maple) and the stock pickup was okay, with the QP I virtually got drowned by the geetard and now with the model P I can kill him with my mids if I want to. The QP only works with very middy guitars without much lowend.

All those hardcore guys with guitars bassy AF and an extra scooped bass Sound plus QP pickups... yeah well Sound brutal when played solo but once the geetards start playin they're gone!

Good example: Deez Nutz

Yeah everything but the nickel tuners. After puttin the tb+ pickups in, with the black pickguard with gold bird and black/gold reflector knobs the chrome bridge jars a bit to me.

You have a walnut Thunderbird? That's really cool.

Also, just saw the Berg you're selling on ozbass. You have some seriously killer taste! That SVT/Double NV610 combo must have been insane.

I can see that...

Try this instead:

www.gui****aterproject.org

And click Epiphone in the right column...

Tried inserting the link several times, and apparaently TB don't like the letters "tard" and keeps removing them from the link...

Do a search for The Guitardater Project instead...
