yorks5stringer Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 (edited) Offered only over this period of national rejoicing is this almost (Royal) mint Epiphone Thunderbird Bass Guitar. Sourced from a big Palace in London ( no names, no packdrill) it comes complete with newly fitted GHS B52's Boomers. There are one or 2 small dints around the back of the headstock and a larger chip on the top edge of the body but overall it's fit for a King! No electrical issues, all controls work smoothly, nice smooth fast neck and low action makes it easy to play. Having never played one before, surprised at the tonal range and sounds available. The Royal connection is through a guest at the Wedding (female singer, tall, big voice?) who recorded an album in the States which is where the Gibson equivalent of this Bass is made....! All this for a price of a bottle of Bubbly at Annabels: £100 Note: some of the Royal facts in this ad may not be totally true.....
