2022 Gibson Non Reverse Thunderbird ** ON HOLD ** - *SOLD* £1000 St Helens

[bigthumb]

Gutted to be sell my TBird but I'm still unable to return to work so really need the funds.  

 

I bought this new last year and it's been my main gigging bass. Much brighter and lighter (4.2 Kg) than my standard Thunderbird due to it's alnico pickups. Chunkier neck too, more Precision like and due to it's shape much easier to play up the dusty end of the neck. I do prefer these to the 'normal' Tbirds I have to say, so good that I bought another a few months ago. I love the sound these thing make. Not at all muddy and the best I can describe it is been like a beefed up Jazz bass and having real presence in the mix. The colour is Pelham blue and in excellent condition with only a small dink by the control cavity cover. Bass comes with its lovely fitted Gibson case which is also in great condition.  

Now £900. The price is to sell and I won't go any lower. I can ship (UK only) at your cost but I'd really prefer to meet up if not too far from Merseyside.

Of all the many Thunderbirds I have owned and played over the years, this current Non-Reverse sounded the best of them all. Bright and growly but with massive balls.

Front pickup - instant Wishbone Ash/Cheap Trick.

Both pickups? Entwistle.

Someone needs to snap this up, it's an absolute bargain.

Lovely bass for a very decent price. GLWTS.

Absolutely fabulous bass, and Paul is an absolutely stellar chap. This is an outstanding deal for someone, silly cheap, total bargain.

I’ve just seen the same bass in a couple of shops in Denmark Street for over £2k.

 

If I didn't already have an identical one and wasn’t running out of storage space, I’d be all over this.

 

GLWTS!
