Thunderbird flock

[godofthunder]

I have never taken a picture of just my birds in all their assorted variations. I learned along time ago it is not wise to leave basses lying around the house it inevitably raise the question from my wife just how many basses do you have and that is a question I would rather not answer. Top row Fenderbird build from '82, 2001 Thunderbird the infamous "Butcher Bird", '76 Thunderbird. Bottom row '67 NR II, '69 NR II, '67 NR II restored, NR Fenderbird, Bach TH-1

That is an outstanding photo! Thanks for posting it!

Nice positioning of reverse and nonreverse.

Is the bottom center the one you bought that had half the body broken off?

[Muzikman7]

Nice collection.

[TBird1958]

Nice to see a group shot Scott 

But I know there's more basses than that at your house!

I know guilt when I see it. Notice how the wild saw's devastation on the lower cutaway of the white TB IV Rev is "coincidentally" covered by a headstock from a Rev in the front row? It must have taken Scott hours to get that angle right to craft this slyly deceptive photo document and cover up his orginal sin. Yet I am not fooled!

Great shot! Keep it up. I sense a red II joining the flock very soon.

Nice! Is there a favorite?

Yep that's it still in primer I will finish it this spring. I took it to rehearsal a few weeks ago, plays and sounds great!

That is a tough question ! It would have to be the '69 NR II I have owned that bass since '78 and my main bass for so many years it is only in the last year or so I stopped taking it to gigs  I may start again what good is it if you don't play it ? I use the NR Fenderbird a lot on stage, my favorite gigging bass at the moment.

I have nothing to hide!

By sticking by one instrument (when you have a herd) may leave you to fall into the very trap you so dearly want to avoid... (shrill, wife's voice screaming...HOW MANY...?)

Very nice shot, btw... (what does Uwe know, anyway...?  )

[Barklessdog]

Great shot & nice collection. I still like the non reverses better, although Marks collection is certainly amazing as well (at least more colorful)

I love that '67 on the lower left. She's hot!
