Telebass Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 New one = thumbs down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grissle Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 Ok that's one down😆, anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subbeh Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Sorry, I think I can see what you're going for but to me it just looks bad . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPHDS Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Hmmmm....not a huge fan of 'New' (sorry!), Do like the 'Thunder 'F'' on the 'Old' though! I do quite like the almost 'non-reverse' pick guard of Entwhistle's original Fenderbird (although I first came to notice that particular wonder in the hands of Leon Wilkeson of Skynyrd.....!) I'd try and work a split pick guard (with the 'Thunder F') to emulate that. (and work with the 'spine' bevel of a T-bird....!?!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Vader Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I also like the new one, rust is great. (and never sleeps) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost_Bass Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I´m not particlarly too fond of the new one but i think it's a huge improvement regading the old one... i hate seeing that metal sheet on basses and on a thunderbird body it just looks silly to me.

Ou7shined Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I think the rest the bass should show similar distressing in order to pull off this look successfully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cytania Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 New one has a beautiful patina, old one is just brutal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougieb Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I quite like the new one. I have a leather tooled scratcher on my TBird that looks kinda cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
