Delberthot Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 OK guys and gals I'm having a big clear out of the majority of my basses and parts. Before I go any further, The blackbird is MIC and the thunderbird is MIK so sanding is required to get the blackbird neck on to the thunderbird body and you'll have a bit of a gap in the neck pocket with the thunderbird neck and blackbird body if that's what you want. I've started sanding the neck pocket of the thunderbird to fit the blackbird neck and had a go at sanding the blackbird neck as well but I honestly cannot be ar$$ed with this caper any more so its all up for grabs.

Delberthot Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 (edited) Next up is the blackbird body. it came to me having had a dunt on the bottom. I have attempted to fill it but its not perfect. Its finished in Ford Imperial Blue and glitter laquer. It hasn't begun to be sanded yet as I noticed that I'd missed a bit after I'd finished. The inserts for the original bridge have gone as I have bought individual chrome jobbies for something a bit different. You'll just need to drill a hole through to the control cavity for the ground wire. I've also bought a set of generic Gotoh GB7 style chrome tuners to finish the look as well. There's also the neck from my Thunderbird with the fretfx LEDs along the top.You sometimes have to wiggle the battery to get a good connection but they look the bollox when they're on Right, the prices are as follows:[list] [*]Blackbird body with original electronics but no pickups or bridge £40 [*]Blackbird neck including neck plate £40 [*]Thunderbird Body with standard 3 point bridge, black metal knobs, electronics, strap buttons but no pickups £60 [*]Thunderbird neck with side LEDs, Gibson copy truss rod cover and neck plate £100 (the Fretfx LEDs are £75 on their own) [*]NIkki Sixx Deep Sixx pickups £50 [*]4 individual chrome bridges £20 [/list] I want to sell all of this ASAP so am open to offers on different combinations of parts or all of it. All prices include shipping to mainland UK. In fact I'll do all of it including the brand new chrome tuners and my Roksak Thunderbird gig bag which is still in fantastic condition for £260 delivered I may be persuaded to part with my EMG 35HZ pickups for £60. I also have a set of EMG35P/J pickups for £75 but you're going to struggle to fit a battery in the control cavity if at all Edited May 20, 2012 by Delberthot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberthot Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 If this doesn't sell then I'm either going to put everything together and hang them both on the wall or take the frets out of one of the necks and build the most neck diviest double neck bass the world has ever seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
