More mod collection basses. Tbirds too

[Chris P.]

A Tbird with a stoptail and three point.

He missed the 4 knobs.

The guy has embarrassingly little knowledge outside of his Norlin-era Gibson comfort zone.

Look at what he has to say about a 1960 Ric 375F ("Huh! apparently it's valuable!" and the unbelievable "and as far as the rest of it goes - regular Rickenbacker stuff") (07:13)



And a '96 360 TUR - apparently he hasn't seen a single Ric in the 35 years between 1973 to 2008 (09:35)

Well, if "it makes the strings feel slinkier" it must be a good thing. The dreaded non-slinky feel of the strings has really held me back from playing TBirds all these years.

Apart from being unnecessary, the holy immaculate three-point/stop-tail combo is butt-ugly.

[Chris P.]

It's not about him or his descriptions. I don't even listened. It's about the basses,

Chris wants to enlist Trogly's sparse yet succinct, charismatic depth of perception & analysis for Warwick. He's no less than stalking him, you just wait ...

PS: Just noticed your new avatar personal text, Herr Decker, have I christened you?

You must be unflappable. Five seconds of his voice is enough to make me shudder.

I have this name here for many, many years, thanks to you! At least five years, maybe more.

I need to get out more.

Someone over at Talkbass bought the NR Tbird with the Tune-o Matic tailstop.
Looks like a very amateuristic job on that tailstop...

[uwe]

It's as crucial a modification as a pair of pontoons on an F-16 jet fighter. Form follows function - not.

I find silly fake stuff like this laughable, sorry.

But of course the strings will feel slinkier that way.

[Grog]

They haven't used that stop tail since the ES Les Paul Bass. Maybe they should sell them with a Slinky.......

[Basvarken]

Yeah it's silly. And yeah it's a mismatch.
But what really bothers me is the sloppy craftsmanship.
It is not parallel to the bridge and not aligned properly.

I like the way they're just goofing around and putting out some silly stuff .
Just about everything else coming down the pike is mindless assembly line work .
