Fiona Apple's cover of The Waterboys' The Whole of the Moon still gives me goosebumps.

Is this back cover magnetic? Or its something like brass?

It's not magnetic.  Not sure what metal it is.

I'm a little jealous that the epiphone firebird guitars will have options for Frost blue and Heather. Any chance Gibson will follow suit with custom color Thunderbirds too?

Gibson's site shows the Thunderbird as discontinued.  Or do you mean the Epiphones?

The bottom doesn't come off and I don't want to force it and break it.  And I can't see anything through the other hole that's not either of the mounting holes.

So it went from Vintage Pro to '60s Thunderbird to '64 Thunderbird?

Rickenbacker Basses / Re: It’s official … 4005

The pointy beast, 4005XC, was shortscale and not based on a historic instrument. Oddly, Shaftesbury had a bass like the 4005XC in the late '60s, so it's a copy of a copy.


Ah, thanks!

I'll see if I can remove them when I get home.  Curious what's in there.

What's the difference between these with the rounded horns and the ones with the horns that come to a point?

I started a new thread, but probably should've posted this here.  A friend sent me his old 1991 TB+ and the bottoms are flat.  Where's the magnet in these?

Gibson Basses / Fun with TB+
« on: February 27, 2024, 05:48:42 PM »
I now have here a set of '91, 2001, and 2013 TB+.  As soon as I get my RNR back from getting some neck work done, I'll try them out and see how different they sound.

Super interesting that the '91s have no magnet bump on the bottom.  Anyone know how these are constructed?
