Thunderbird

Have you checked to see the string is not twisted

There are so many Steve Harris, Rudi Sarzo Cliff Burton Jason Newstead Geezer Butler and Frank Bello (Who is never really mentioned) are some of my faves but the player that really does it for me is David Ellefson when I heard peace sells it blew me away and when I started playing bass about 20 odd years later I tried a ton of Megadeth songs and thought wow this guy is great

Never seen any bargains on the CC website most of the stuff is over priced sh*te

Hope it is good that seems bonkers money for a pickguard IMO

Equally T-birds don't hold as high a resale value as Fender so you can get bargains out there. Personally I'd go with the Epiphone. The Tokai ones I tried all weighed an absolute tonne and they are a light bass.
