I picked this up on a whim and I am really digging it! A bargain at $300.00 used.

Gibson Basses / Re: NBD Nonrev Tbird

Mine suffered from the same bubbling finish around the tuners. It's definitely due to the finish not being properly cured before assembly.

Fender Basses / Vintera II 70s Telecaster Bass review

One of the hazards of working at the House of Guitars is seeing stuff before anyone else. Total impulse buy and I'm glad I did. I've been sitting on this for several weeks waiting for the official release.

Gibson Basses / Gibson Custom Shop Gene Simmons EB0

I got to play the Gene Simmons EB0 a few weeks ago, for me it's about as cool as it gets though the 10k price tag makes me want to go 60s Thunderbird shopping. https://youtu.be/LgrZS-TOQo4?si=LqAbGNV28nrzVryU

The contemporary Gibson Nonreverse Thunderbird I put the Probuckers in I actually moved the neck pickup to the 60s position so it's not really a apples to apples comparison.

Gibson Basses / NBD 81-86 Gibson Victory Standard
« on: July 20, 2023, 06:37:32 AM »
Found languishing on Reverb, seller listed it at 1,200, then dropped it to $849 shipped and was accepting offers I low balled it and he accepted! Has the mass of a small planet, makes my Peavey T40 seem light. I really like the 24 fret neck, love the extended range. Pickup is focused and a bit tame certainly sounds like the 80s, my DOD bi-fet pre amp brings it to life. The bass is well played but not abused came with worn ohsc. The maple body is a bit of overkill imho, mahogany or alder would have really complimented this bass both in tone and weight. Video soon.
