About time Gibson started selling bass spare parts. i don't even know since when that ever happened so good news.
I'm being told that the NR 60s will be available in early '23 no pricing as of yet. The Nonreverse Thunderbird will continue in production in '23 but no Reverse Thunderbirds or Firebirds are planned for the immediate future. The reverse guitars are complicated to make and Gibson flat out doesn't the production capacity at the moment. Long term plans for the Thunderbird and Firebird line do include vintage spec versions but that will be sometime in the furture. I should live so long
The black plastic cover TBird Plus pickups were available for a few years in the early 2000s.
