A Thunderbird Photo Gallery
« on: April 24, 2009, 11:18:43 PM »
 A little fun with my camera and the Thunderbirds on a sunny day in Seattle. Don't get me wrong I love all Gibson basses even if my soft spot is for 'Birds, one of these days an RD and an Explorer will make their way into the group. Meantime, I had to shoot them singley there's too many for the tradtional group shot anymore.............It's been awhile so since the weather's better ( at least here in the Northern Hemisphere)  how about it guys, post some new shots of your Thunderbirds for us all to enjoy.

The Black '77


My White '89


The single pup Greco   

 
The 7Up Green '76


The Surf Green Orville


The Fenderbird, with a Drinky Crow pick guard


The Nikki Sixx Mk.II, sporting a new stainlees steel pickguard and TRC - eventually it'll be all chromey good.

The Purple Bird, still my fave!

The Lull, with it's bridge and pup covers in place 

And the black sheep! I don't think I've ever shot this bass before, it's what I "cheat" with - a Washburn AB20

nice... 8)

unless I'm gone bananas, nearly double figures...

It's no good... I'm gonna have to start a bit of disconsent... as a new posting... I have a serious dilema...
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...
