I split town barely ahead of the hurricane, leaving my beloved thunderbirds to their fate. Had dreams of a '76 bird up in a tree surrounded by downed power lines. The horror, the horror. Anyway I woke up and my hotel room carpet is soaked from vertical rain on the window and I am guessing probably still have a house as the eye just missed my town.
I just stumbled upon these pickups on Invalid Link Removed. Not affiliated with anything in regards of selling or the seller themselves, but i thought it was a cool option for those owning epiphone birds that wanna chrome out but not necessarily have to modify the pickup cavity for shallower chrome pickups.
On another note, i hate when TB doesn't notify me of this club's actions
I do hope the brethren who are near the hurricane, & their families are safe!

Nice... Looks exactly like the Epiphone TB+ pickups in shape...
Shame the seller doesn't provide any technical info about them.
Could be an interesting alternative for some...

Yes. Would definitely like to see specific specs .
Fingers crossed and it says a lot about you that you were sensible enough to put your well being before belongings. Get yourself back as soon as it's safe and get yourself sorted out

I hope your Thunderbirds stayed dry and all else is well for you.
Exactly! You can replace things, you can't replace lives. Be well all in Matthews path, and everyone else in general of course!
I have experienced the destructive power of a Hurricane, i ised to live in Lafayette Louisiana and Hurricane Andrew came roaring through causing all kinds of havoc! If reapect is not given to Mother Nature she can and will f@ck up many things without any form of mercy! Glad your out of harms way.
Shout out to LarryV. Another satisfying p-guard transaction.
I've never even got close to a real hurricane, a strong storm yes but not the real thing, they must be terrifying.
That chopped up TBird on ebay was in Lafayette, nothing to do with you by any chance?
I was in Miami FL for Andrew, what a mess that bastard left us with! Quite the heads up as well for the home construction business... glad you're well. From the news and reports I'm getting from the old homestead, your Birds are probably ok too.

Take care- we get Cyclones here and have seen what they can do.
Fingers crossed for you and everyone else there.

Oh no no... That one is yours, Scott... I was just curious on who was bidding on it.
I ain't gonna bid on it and raise the price unnecessarily for a fellow club member that I know wants it...
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!
