Thank you guys. It was my pleasure.
I'm glad you helped me realise the dream. Without your help and participation it would never have come to life.


In the meanwhile BaCH has quit making the NR Tbirds. And they're sold out on their site.
I only have three of these left: Two Transparent Red ones. And one Pelham Blue with belly cut and custom pickguard.

If I knew the Model G would fit under a chrome T-bird cover I would have bought the one I saw... Only 40 euros...

Holy cats! I have a new gig and I fired up the Hiwatt rig with this bass. Unbelievable this thing is going to kick some ass!

I have the honeyburst all set up BEAD. I didn't change out the strings the low E is a 0.104. Backed off the truss rod and everything works and sounds good. Looking forward to gigging it. The Cherry TH-1 is coming along, I am either going to put in a chrome covered Model G or Thunderderbucker Max in it. ;D

It took me a little while to get the parts together to do a 60's conversion on her but with a little twist ;) I didn't have any w/b/w pgs on hand so I went with parchment/b/p with the stamped Tbird logo. Next was one of my 60's repro tail pieces. Off ebay I bought a N.O.S tug bar and a repro pickup cover. I stuffed the cover with a Dimarzio Model G using clear silicon as a adhesive and gap filler. I was going to buy a Thundebucker Max and may still at some point but I do love the Dimarzio Model G.
