Has anyone been able to compare a TG to a Mercalli? Same pickups but different construction..Just wondering if there's a significant difference.

I've owned both.

No real difference other than the Mercalli bolted-on neck vs the set neck and raised center section on the Thundergun.

Did a designer somewhere win an award for photographing a silver bass against a distressed off-white background?

 

Yet another triumph of arty-farty nonsense over common sense.

To be fair, the silver would've looked good against any of the backgrounds from the other images too, but yes, I also saw what you highlighted. 😂

By the way, only 4 Venetian Gold Thunderguns available.

Two in the UK...one on Reverb.

Other than that, the background wasn't exactly the problem

It was lighting.

Sure, a darker grey would've worked better, but...

I tried both in merchant city music. I went in wanting the thundergun but left with the mercalli. I felt it sounded better, brighter generally, just a bit more alive ( plus the mercalli was a bit cheaper which helped). However I would definitely go with the opinion of someone who has loved with both over my very brief impressions.

Thanks Bassmidget. I have a Mercalli but have always wanted to try a TG. I like the new colours and you know how it is when you get a guitar fixation. Have tried to sell my Mercalli on here but used market seems tough atm and had little interest. What did you think of the new TG colours having seen them in person?
