No Thunderbirds out there?.....
-
Could be in Essex on Thursday !
John -
Delivery possible NE this weekend, NW Monday, M6 Corridor Tuesday or SE Wednesday...........and no I don't drive for a living !
John -
Will get them up on Sunday, gigs to be completed which means I'm not at home !
You know you want it........................its missing from your collection !!! -
All the way to the bottom.........ooooer Mrs !
I am down there next Wednesday as it happens and possibly Thursday
John -
If you live in NE could be delivered personally on Saturday........no need to wait !
-
Could include Gibson Hard case for a total of £475.........a bargain.........or p/ex your Thunderbird !
-
Many thanks for that......and we have great fun playing as well !!!
-
None at all, and interestingly the current reissue bass doesn't have the blocks either although the maple cap one that I used to have did !.
Personal opinion is they look more "authentic" with the dots !
Great basses and a genuinely different sound to most others basses out there and not just a "one trick pony" either but Gibbo's are a bit like Bovril really................I use mine every week and occasionally the EB2 but never tried a Thunderbird but had a couple of Ric's.
My versatile needs are my 77 Jazz (weighs a ton) and my 51 Shuker which is awesome.
Check out www.theproperboys.co.uk or YouTube to see one of my originals being used.

Its the faded finish, could include a Gibson case instead of a Gig Bag for an extra £40 though
John -
Meant to add reason for sale is 2 orignal EB3's and an EB2 is probably overkill.............unless someone wants to get involved in a p/ex with a Thunderbird and cash their way...........food for thought Gibbo fans.
John -
No, its the dot markers, which made it look more like my 2 original EB3's, never thought the blocks really looked right !
I'm gigging in Newcastle Saturday evening if you want to see/try it.
Cheers

What impedance are the cabs?.....I have a Scout 4ohm 12in fantastic condition and I live in Yorkshire !
-
sadly traded yesterday
-
Does anyone want pics of these cabs?
-
Thanks for the endorsement and your not wrong !, thunderous sound.........go one you know you want one !
-
Chance to own the ultimate Marshall stack !
Does anything look better (particularly if you are playing rock) and guitarists love these beasts as well.
Bottom cab in reasonable condition (looks good from front and has castors), top cab in good condition and has castors as well. Both 16ohm and handle 300w.
Looking for £150 for bottom and £190 for top but would take £300 for both and could be personally delivered in NE, NW MI corridor, WM or SE for £20
Or come and collect and have a coffee in Yorkshire !
Sounds great with the Super Bass 100 Mk 2 (which is on hold until Saturday) and if you have an old EB3 this is the Andy Fraser Jack Bruce tone !!!
PM me and lets deal -
Bought from fellow BCer 4 months ago but now downsizing:
Delivery may be possible but courier would be very expensive but collection from NE or York also welcome.
• These are currently £510 new and that is the cheapest you will find a new one in the UK (GAK etc have just dropped the prices down from £550).
• This cabinet is rated 400W at 4 ohms, this means that it will take the majority of heads in use today, and that you will not need (nor would you want) another cab to get anymore oomph from your amp. - If you are unsure of what works with your head or how this will suit it then don't hesitate to ask, I don't mind explaining!
• It has four 12" speaker cones, this is bigger than your average 4x10 (for better bass), but isn't restricted to the muddy booming of a 1x15. This results in a serious wall of sound. This thing is LOUD. You'll never struggle for volume in a gig, but still produces beautiful sounds at low levels for practicing. I think it sounds great and IMO it works really well with a Mesa Boogie head, and obviously a Marshall VBA so it's a versatile beast.
• It's 49kg, that puts it on the heavier side, but it is perfectly easy to carry between two people with the comfortable handles which are firmly embedded in the side of the thing.
• The previous owner fitted his own set of castors to the bottom. These things are sturdy and as robust as anything.
• There is some minor Tolex damage to the edges (not caused by me). I superglued the material back flush (in two very small locations), I reckon some black nail varnish over the crack where the small tears were would render it damn near invisible. Great condition besides that!
• The web site says "it features two separate sealed chambers which help to prevent unwanted cabinet resonance while adding to the structural integrity of the unit. It is also lined with sound absorbent wadding to further help dampen internal resonance."
You know you want it !
A bargain at £250 -
With my weakness for Gibson basses being cruely exposed.........where are you?
We may well have a deal ! -
Rarely available and sought after by both bass players and guitarists!
The Andy Fraser/Jack Bruce sound without the need to use pedals.
Regularly gigged but replaced by VBA !
Will post pictures on Friday when back home
Bargain at £475
Could also include 2 Marshall 4x12 Bass Cabs (one angled) for the ultimate stack for a further £300
£725 for all 3 together........now thats a bargain !........and I could probably deliver in NE/NW or SE and M1 corridor as well.
Service with a smile -
PM'd you..........£££££
