Thanks for posting that vid in the OP. I knew about the Sandberg connection but I didn't know he had a signature model. He mentions the health issues of Danny towards the start, it's good to see that Danny has been making progress in his recovery. Thunder has been making a number of album re-issues recently, I can only suppose this is because the band currently has no income because of the lack of touring, so I don't begrudge them that at all, I've even bought a few myself.

Yes, you can order them via me. Send me a PM or email. Just 4-string versions? Or are there going to be 5-string versions too? Mark

I've been a Thunder fan since their first album. I'm looking forward to giving this a play when I've the time. Mark

Def Leppard had 6 entries (464, 379, 286, 205, 106, and 81) 5 of which were from the '80s, the other from the '90s. Nothing strange or startling from any of those entries, but it's just nice to see them make an appearance. Mark

Oohh, our TV is always at odd numbers for volume. Normally 35 when watching with The Wife, but when she's in bed I set it to 31, sometimes 29 or 27 if it's a particularly loud mix. Mark

😂 Sometimes it can also be an automatic response. 😂 Mark

Manufactured in large quantities = mass produced. I suspect a few thousand of something would qualify as mass produced. I have no idea in what quantities basses are produced, so I can't help with that. Mark

Keep them for another 20 years and then sell them to add to your retirement fund? Mark

That was really good, and worthy of a follow all by itself. I've listened to the rest of the album, and it's now on my list to get on the next Bandcamp Friday. Mark

I had never heard this, so I just did a search and I'm quite happy to never hear it again. 😂 Mark

Ha! I've had the same idea for one of my 5-string builds, only I'll be using the J-type pickups Reverend uses in it's basses. Nice work. Mark

I missed this thread when originally posted. I follow you on Bandcamp and got no notification of this, so I just checked there, and it's not listed hahaha, I guess that explains that. I liked that, and looking forward to your album next year too. Mark

Betteridge's law of headlines, applied to forum thread titles … Mark

I searched for 5-string basses, because that's what I play. 20 results, and of those 20, 2 were for strings, 1 was a case, 1 was a 6-string and 1 was a 4-string. Of the remaining ones there was a very nice example of a Spector Euro 5 LX, including case for £2k. Mark
