I do need a Butt Bow! This all went so quick I didn't even get to change into my boots! I'm onstage in white Converse!
The hot pants are nice for a gig like this, I don't need to give everybody a show while I'm bending over setting gear up

LOL - nothing says Fast and Easy like Chucks with Hot Pants!

Yup, that's me!

Totally a fun gig, the crowd was awesome.

 

[Count Bassie]

Out with it!

Chucks. I often wear, um, Chucks.

Yeah. That's it!

That's an interesting stage arrangement in that bar - up against the front window and right next to the entrance vs all the way at the back corner of the bar. Next time you play there you need to get about four or five of your buddy's to stand outside the window on the sidewalk and put on a bit of a doo-wop stage show in the background, the folks inside would love it!

if you have an epiphone thunderbird 5 string bass could you please tell me the distance from the top of the headstock to the part of the body furthest away from the tip of the headstock not to the strap button and the width at the widest part of the body ? Thank you.

49" and 14". Or 124.46 cm and 35.56 cm. You're welcome.

My LCG is finally complete with Brads conversion neck . This bass is now perfectly balanced and a mean rock machine .
I dyed the body and topped it off with Watco Danish oil . Has a Neo Punch p for a strong punchy and clear voice.

The lollipop tuners look great. Been thinking about those for my Peavey.

As soon as saw @fretno 's bird, I thought the same thing!

Gotcha, now I know what "LCG" stands for, lol

So you bought the unfinished body from him? Did you have him do the pickup routing, etc?

I had that made with a P route , but Brad offers several pickup routing choices , wood choices , neck heel contours etc etc .

I sure did , I actually had 2 made , the other was a 8 string that I parted out a while back to some TB'ers

 

[fretno]

This bass had a Warmoth neck on it at first until I got Brads amazing 32" neck

[vdub75]

may I ask how much he takes for a Body? in a personal message if you prefer not to post the Price openly

 

[fretno]

I actually don't exactly recall , I want to say 165/185 . Hit Brad up though , he is a TB'r as well
