Ran across a white Vintage Pro Thunderbird last night at a local store.
It had lots of paint flaws in the back: thin spots, spots that looked like a different shade of white, cracks in the paint about 2" below the spot where T birds traditionally break, etc.
The back of the neck itself almost looked like a satin finish whereas the body was a gloss white.
The serial number was stamped into the headstock, but covered with a sticker with another number.
Also stamped into the headstock above the tuners was "2nd".
My Vintage Pro has the serial number silkscreened in gold and was made in Indonesia.
If this white one really is a Vintage Pro made in Indonesia, why would they bother to send a "2nd" to the US?
Is there such a think as a fake Epi Tbird, as ludicrous as it sounds?
