Hi folks.  Here we have a modified (by one of our own) Westone Thunder 1A that I bought recently in the hope that the physically smaller size might help me a bit with continuing to play.  But alas not.  The mods are:

 

  • The original light oak finish has been stripped back and the body lightly stained with a black oil finish
  • The headstock has been reshaped (hint of Fodera maybe?)
  • New tuners fitted (originals have been lost in the mists of time)
  • Pickup and electronics are all original (and work fine)
  • New knobs (again the originals are AWOL)
  • Bridge cover and thumb rest added

 

The bass weighs bang on 4kgs on my digital scales and will come with a decent gig bag.  Collection/meet up much preferred but I can post.

 

Plenty of pics attached including the original s/n.  Any questions please ask; thanks for stopping by:

That wood is just beautiful!

 

I think the stained oil finish really does it justice compared to the lacquered light oak finish that came as standard.
