alyctes Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 No idea about these, but it might easily be missed because it's misnamed... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Thunderbird-Bass-guitar/122105766203?_trksid=p2047675.c100623.m-1&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D38837%26meid%3D82f1e5d841e140bc835ddf4aa6e8077f%26pid%3D100623%26rk%3D4%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D182260357189 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Not now it won't be! Looks in very nice nick - these usually seem to turn up beaten to hell. Not my thing (I never manage to get those jazz gigs!) but would be cool if someone here got a bargain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberthot Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1472675727' post='3123257'] Exactly... defret and turn up to jazz jams with it [/quote] I did have a defretted one but decided to sell as the first fret position may as well have been in the next town it was so far away I take it the reason this one has a scratchplate is that it has been routed for the Stingray pickups? Mine had the standard soapbars with the staggered poles [URL=http://s927.photobucket.com/user/Delberthot/media/DSC06311%20Large_zpsh68xv6db.jpg.html][IMG]http://i927.photobucket.com/albums/ad111/Delberthot/DSC06311%20Large_zpsh68xv6db.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s927.photobucket.com/user/Delberthot/media/DSC06325%20Large_zpsbpaxsduj.jpg.html][IMG]http://i927.photobucket.com/albums/ad111/Delberthot/DSC06325%20Large_zpsbpaxsduj.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So - I hereby retract any previous positive remarks made about this bass. Shamefully & needlessly butchered! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkHeart Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 (edited) Got a different bridge to the ones ive seen, mine has a fine tuning bridge, that scratchplate looks awful! mine [URL=http://s80.photobucket.com/user/jeffhop/media/SNV80452_zps1d61c1ce.jpg.html][IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j186/jeffhop/SNV80452_zps1d61c1ce.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Edited September 15, 2016 by DarkHeart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
