Hi group: I bought one of the original runs of the Bachbird Non-Reverse TH-1. I had always intended to do some customization, and I finally got around to it. I repainted the headstock and put a bogus truss rod cover on. I added Gotoh Res-o-lite GBR 640 tuners, as well as a Lull pickup and tailpiece claw. I got one of Scott Dasson's excellent pickguards and put it on, too! Hope you like it. I took me a while to decide on a paint type and color for the headstock, I can tell you! Plays and sounds great! I'm happy, as this is the closest that I could get to a 60's NR. Best wishes, Rick.
That looks great!
Cool. Nice to see they're still being loved and well taken care of.
Maybe swap the bridge for one of Scott's Badbird bridges, to
make it all nickel?
Yes. That is probably my next move...in fact, I have had one sitting in my parts box for many years!
Those Gotoh Res-o-lites are awesome by the way!
That bass looks great! I know my three Bach birds are not going anywhere 8)
Nice work!
I so missed the boat on these. She's a pretty bird.
