Who's Who Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 (edited) Nice Photo! Did I see you guys at last years Cambridge Folk Festival? Edited December 4, 2011 by Who's Who Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Who's Who Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Seriously though, if anyone is viewing this and 'thinking' of buying this bass, then just go for it. I have 3 pretty decent basses, and I gotta say the Thunderbird is by far the best. I probably use mine for a slightly different style of music to 'Uncle Rotter', but nevertheless they are fantastic basses. If I ever hit hard times, then my Thunderbird would definitely be the last to go. Best of luck with the sale mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Apple Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 In what way did your old one break, did Gibson supply this one under warrenty or something? How come the band split? you looked like you had something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Apple Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 (edited) [quote name='Dr T' timestamp='1323010427' post='1458229'] [/quote] If my memory serves me well, 11141 on the serial number means the neck was stamped on the 114th day of 2011, which is May 24th. the 0315 means it was the 315th neck made by Gibson to be stamped on that day. The 21/08/11 on the tag is the date on which the Bass was inspected. edit: spelling Edited December 5, 2011 by billyapple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr T Posted December 5, 2011 Author Share Posted December 5, 2011 Cheers who's who, yeah Cambridge Folk Festival needed rocking up lol Thanks Billyapple dint know that about the serial number, The old one got knocked at home and split the head, i was insured but it took so long due to (i'm told) floods at Gibson HQ, The bands not split per say BUT we have nothing booked at the moment and if you goolge uncle rotter or go on youtube you'll see i have a few different bass's as this is new i may as well sell this one as its far to good to be just kept under the bed.
