New Thunderbird Day!
« on: October 28, 2019, 08:19:47 PM »
Picked up a new 2018 Thunderbird bass on the weekend and OMG I love this thing!! It is beautifully made and sounds fantastic. Super light as well...

You'll need chrome hardware and 60ies pups with it or you won't be taken serious here.  :rolleyes:

I'm the sensible exception. Stick with that lovely black hardware and the modern day TB Plus pups, son! TBirds of all ages are a joy to play, you'll be hooked soon.

I did have a Lemmy SuperBass but unfortunately had to sell it.

To upload a pic into your post, click on Additional Options right below the text box, then under Attach, choose a file or files.

Better option: open a free Imgur account, upload pics to your account, then copy the BB Code option for each photo and paste directly into the text box.

Welcome, and stay away from the chrome, it is a poison after all.
Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it.

With Uwe it's always a Deep Purple thing - "more black" hardware is simply a subliminal palindrome of sorts for "Blackmore".
Now, tolerant human that I am, I own a Thunderbird Studio, where the chrome and the black peacefully coexist.

 Didn't Glover remark about accidentally breaking the headstock of his on stage?

Since when is Jimmy Bain considered a Deep Purple member?
