bassbiscuits Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) NOW UPDATED WITH PHOTOS - scroll down for January 20 post. I'm selling a white Tokai TB48 Thunderbird bass - I bought it on Basschat before Christmas as I've always lusted after a T-bird, but I've realised it's just not for me after all. Therefore it's in exactly the same condition as when I bought it, so I'm looking to get back what I paid SOLD including a fitted Epiphone case. It's Korean-made, from 2007, with a set (not bolt-on) neck. It also has: Set of chrome Schaller machine heads Badass 1 bridge CTS pots and wiring Gibson volume and tone knobs Gibson Thunderbird scratchplate The modifications are all neat and done to a really good standard. It's also fitted with brand new Schaller strap locks, which I'll leave on as I don't need them for my other basses (but can swap them back to original strap pins if you prefer!) Strung with decent newish 45-105 roundwounds. Cosmetically there are a couple of fairly minor knocks and dings on it, and two discreetly filled screw holes on the bottom edge (plus one on neck heel) where previous owners have repositioned the strap pins. These have since been filled and painted. The important bits all play well, with decent action and good condition frets! Would prefer collection or meet up at a reasonable distance, but can investigate couriering if need be. I'm based in Leicester but occasionally travel to Norfolk or South Wales.

bassbiscuits Posted January 17, 2013 Author Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) BUMP - no love for this bargainous Kings of Leon-tastic white T-bird? Edited January 25, 2013 by bassbiscuits
bassbiscuits Posted January 17, 2013 Author Posted January 17, 2013 Hi Tom - not really looking for a trade, but by all means PM me if you've got anything specific in mind.
bassbiscuits Posted January 25, 2013 Author Posted January 25, 2013 Friday afternoon bump - no love for a T-bird?
bassbiscuits Posted January 25, 2013 Author Posted January 25, 2013 Cheers Stu - I'm just not young enough or cool enough to carry off this particular look anymore ha ha!
bassbiscuits Posted January 27, 2013 Author Posted January 27, 2013 Bump for a good bass needing a new home. I'm preparing to move house so quite keen to shift this beforehand as its just sitting in its case under the bed at the moment! Happy to listen to sensible offers.
rumour6 Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Been through the same process (more than once... just to prove it) but I still think they're the coolest looking basses and this is particularly nice. Best of luck.
Cosmo Valdemar Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Bump for a really cool bass... Those upgrades make it look incredible. Amazing bargain too.
bassbiscuits Posted January 27, 2013 Author Posted January 27, 2013 Cheers for the kind words! Yeah I still think T birds are the coolest looking basses ever by a country mile. But I just can't get on with it after playing just a P bass for for the best part of 20 years. Sure it'll make a cool instrument for someone out there!
bassbiscuits Posted February 1, 2013 Author Posted February 1, 2013 Hi - this is now sold pending the usual.
