cetera Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) Finally had 2 minutes to take some photos of this gorgeous bass I got a few months back....! It's a Jackson 'TBX-Pro' Thunderbird in black Japanese-made in very limited numbers back in the early 90's, this gorgeous example is in almost mint condition, comes loaded with active 18V EMG soapbars and sounds HUGE!!! Enjoy.... Edited July 13, 2011 by cetera 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amimbari Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 (edited) sorry for opening up such an old thread but Gary, remember me? Mike from talkbass/JCF ( amimbari ). I never joined this group and just looked at the pictures and chat, but while looking for a TBX for sale, I found your posts. Do you still have it? I sold mine to a friend here in the states in 2014 and always wondered if I would ever find another one. I hooked up with a guy in Russia and he has a bunch of export- Japan-only units INCLUDING the unicorn Charvel Tbird so I bought it as well as his Soloist. He also has a Grover Jackson p-p 5string Futura, but is not ready to sell it yet Edited May 5, 2019 by amimbari 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, good to hear from you again - sorry you let your J-Bird go but love the new Charvel one you got! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
