Paul S Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Just popped up - all original '84 Westone Thunder Jet bass - even has the original knobs which are one of the first things to go. These are cracking if kept stock but make excellent modding platforms. Compared to the Thunder 1A these are passive, generally lighter in weight and have 2 extra frets. Plus of course the stealth all black satin finish is as cool as. Start price is low at £50. Not for me as I am sticking exclusively to shorties now. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/166773268879?itmmeta=01HYADZX6EM2JTMV22F23JYVGK&hash=item26d476218f%3Ag%3AUakAAOSwV4NmSeou&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAAwEAjKCuEYY7vI9wDv68k2hzVMH%2FwLH%2BTwm2c7cT3pqmxl1MVgwnKRQAESIdT5A04Q2QWKA6gQDbdJr%2BhiXEfnVTok4FNEV5f8aHmG1dN%2FNReEwHYA%2Bwe8BFNUpAQW4Q42sOqYhL7JcKQPlRfNa8UVs%2FzOXWcQM%2B%2BUBt61y3f%2FZRFxA%2BWi%2BultdfjYuJxlEfmzbThETF89FogPvEGYIo7KaDNdZe7BNEgFRH8Xm37kQ4yNEHjMaBM7wyAMwT%2FTxBHTA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6bT_83yYw&LH_ItemCondition=3000 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwillett Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Any idea if the black was a standard colour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwillett Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 <Sigh> I thought Jet was some sort of reference to speed or noise, not for Whitby based Goths. I live and learn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikNik Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Wasn't this the model that came with the (optional) black fretless neck? I knew a guy up here in the late '80s that had one, with the other neck that sat in the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted May 21 Author Share Posted May 21 No, that was the Spectrum DX or SX or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartelby Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 These are great basses, I love mine. The pickup is really punchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
