LowB_FTW Posted Monday at 04:36 Posted Monday at 04:36 Oohh I do like that silver. Now if only they did that colour in the newly announced 5-string Triad. Mark 1 Quote
sPiKi Posted Monday at 13:01 Posted Monday at 13:01 Has anyone been able to compare a TG to a Mercalli? Same pickups but different construction..Just wondering if there's a significant difference. 1 Quote
JottoSW1 Posted Monday at 13:06 Posted Monday at 13:06 Keep on browsing the Reverend website and (semi) hoping they'll produce some left handed versions 1 Quote

No real difference other than the Mercalli bolted-on neck vs the set neck and raised center section on the Thundergun. 1 Quote

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. 😂 Mark Quote

jd56hawk Posted Monday at 17:00 Author Posted Monday at 17:00 (edited) 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... Edited Monday at 17:05 by jd56hawk Quote

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. Quote
sPiKi Posted Wednesday at 22:52 Posted Wednesday at 22:52 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? Quote
HeadlessBassist Posted Thursday at 17:50 Posted Thursday at 17:50 That transparent red is very nice. Might have to have a look around t'internet to find some in stock. Quote

What do they actually sound like? I can't remember any other bass with a P/H pickup configuration. Quote
