Robert Manning Posted December 12, 2012 Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) Hey guys, just managed to take some nice photos. [s]£750...[/s]£650 This is a 1996/7 USA thunderbird. Condition wise, i would say a 7/10. the neck pickup has been replaced with an EB-O stye pickup. comes with original hard-case. Frets are perfect. There has not been any addition routing on the replaced pick up, so if you would like to go back to the original its not an issue. Price is £750 Trade wise i'm very open please send me your offers! have a listen! ] Edited February 28, 2013 by Robert Manning

Bassulike66 Posted December 12, 2012 Posted December 12, 2012 Forgive my tierd old eyes but has there been additional routing for the EB pup?!
Robert Manning Posted December 12, 2012 Author Posted December 12, 2012 hey!, good question. theres no routing !!! so you can pop a stock pickup back in there no problem!!
Bassulike66 Posted December 12, 2012 Posted December 12, 2012 [quote name='evilLordJuju' timestamp='1355321991' post='1896909'] Are you sure about that? [/quote] +1 It's pup measuring time methinks....

If so they can be altered around the underside area that fits in the original cavity by carefully filing down the 'potting' tar-like material that surrounds the pickup assembly at the rear. I had to do this on one of these pickups to adjust it to fit in the cavity of an SG bass. Worked a treat no extra routing necessary and no problem to the pickup.

I had a DM model I in an EB3 and the guts, which are a fair bit smaller than the footprint of the surround, are sealed in a black resin.
