Gibson Basses / Re: 2015 tbird vs 1991

It looks like you get an ebony fretboard on the '91 which I like but that's it. I'd say keep the 2015 model.

Is that a good screwdriver for playing heavy metal?
Or should I get this one instead?
And does it work on the two point Gibson bass bridges too? I've heard those are really, really difficult.
I've never had issues with ballads/'girlie songs' or overtly melodic stuff. I can listen to Black Sabbath and then switch to Beach Boys or Bee Gees, no problem. I have really hidden, deep and dark guilty pleasures!
Fogerty a few weeks ago, first talking about his rediscovered Rick, then showing his voice is still good.
Could be, but Epi often increases after an introductory price. Didn't they do that with the Vintage Pro TBird?
I've said it before, but it deserves constant repetition: Your Brooks ThunderVee is the most beautiful Flying Arrow bass ever, period. And that dark-stained body wood extension is an effing brilliant design feature, I bow to you though you apparently largely listen to live albums recorded in the studio!
Did it sell or did you keep it?
Would you build another one? One that is perhaps called U-Vee?
And that ThunderGrabber is cool too.
Hey now!
I have a firm grip on myself, secondly the bass is finally the one most of us have wanted for decades! Gibson need to get this into production then you can assail them for a SPCB re-issue.
A smart choice with the Kramer, let me tell you.
Those things were (and are) awful. The worst sounding off the rack Gibson bass ever (and that includes the SB series). Close runner-up: the SG-Z.

She doesn't look well.
