New (to me) Gibson 2005 Thunderbird Studio

Those things have deeper bass frequencies than a regular Bird, but the mids aren't as nuanced, more solid. Heavy rock compatible.

I listened to the clip through my stereo and I reckon It sounds great, I hear less of the mid range honk you get with tb plus on a standard thunderbird.If there is more low bass too then I am going to keep an eye(and Ear) out for one! The Thunderbird I had back in 1990 had all sorts of pickups in it (this was before thunderbuckers) chasing a tone probably not too different to what I hear in your video ! How does the weight compare?

 I haven't weighed it, but it feels just a little heavier than my '89. The more I play this bass the more I'm really digging it, the neck is just a little bigger than a standard issue Bird, it's just solid!
