Leen2112 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Orite Dunc, Welcome to Basschat. Check out the for sale section, you never know what might pop up. I think the first Bass I recorded with (1989 ish) was a westone thunder and I remember thinking at the time it was a pretty good feeling Bass.

I had the Westone for over 20 years. I got rid of it because I ended up playing so high up all the time I had forgot how to play bass!!! Silly to sell it though. The Thunder 3 have amazing versatility. Very heavy though and my backs not as good as it was in the 90's. Thanks again...

I have them all over. Even got two in a reording studio in Belgium she doesn't know about!!. If I find a Thunder 3 I'll let you know. Thanks again...

[/quote] Hiya hiding basses, tut, tut lol. Westone Thunder! Never owned one of those, found a couple on Ebay recently, but didn't follow them. You're right they are heavy, but they did have good tone for their day. Hope you find a good one soon. cheers Ellie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdjpower Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I should stop visiting this forum... I tried halfheartedly to sell my Westone Thunder 3A for £300 about a year ago. It's still in the attic, I am a bit less strapped for cash, let me know if you are interested. For sale, or to swap for a decent electric guitar. Actually, thanks itsmedunc, you may have inspired me to relist it, but I'll PM you first. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
