Nikki Sixx' Thunderbird shaped Spectors.

[Blazer]

I think they look awesome.

[Freuds_Cat]

Would look (and sound) a whole lot better with a pair of TB pups on it instead of Fender style pups IMHO 

[PhilT]

I don't think the Spector headstock goes well with the tBird body. The body's all about forward motion and then it comes to a dead stop at the end of the neck. There's a Fernandez lookalike that has the same problem.

Where's the Opti-Grab? 

[Blazer]

Where's the Opti-Grab? 

At the bridge, look closer, it's there alright. 

[Dave W]

Sure enough, it is. How did miss that? My excuse is that I hadn't had my morning coffee yet.

[Nocturnal]

I don't think the headstock looks right either. Have there been any other Thunderbird's with 2+2 headstocks that looked right? I know that GMP guitars made Thunderbirds with longer 2+2's, but I'm having trouble finding a good pick. If you scroll thru this crap on this link you'll see a couple of crappy pic's a a GMP T-bird.

 Nikki almost looks healthy in that pic. I have always wanted a Spector but I hate the curved stock body shape, I'd love a Tbird one ! Yeah the 2+2 don't look right but I'd hit it

[OldManC]

I'd take one of the Spectors just to have one. I'd have bought one of the Fernandez copies but it's a bolt neck and too pricey for a cheaper copy.

[Nocturnal]

Thanks George! The GMP headstock looks better than the Spector IMO.

[Blazer]

Looks a LOT like the headstock on one of these...

I've got a Rebop 5. I'm not wild about the look of the body, but it works, and the neck is great. Actually the Tbird would probably look better with the 5-string headstock. Now there's an interesting project for someone.

[Blazer]

H'mmm what about the spector Rex Brown?

[PhilT]

Yes, I like that better. And almost right pickups too.

Fugly!

As for a 2+2 headstock - an Ibanez Iceman style would probably work. (Sorry, this 3+1 Greco is all I could find)
