£150

Up for sale is my early Matsumoko Westone Thunder 1A. Bought on a whim as it was the first bass I had when I was 16, but it just aint getting played. Plus I'm just not fussed with active basses. Everything works as it should, lovely low action and powerful sound. I believe it to be all original, but the front strap button has been moved to under the horn.

It has plenty of mojo, but is in not bad nick for a 30+ year old bass. I'll try to get some better pics up later, and it's shown without the TRC which is on the bass in real life.

£150 collected or delivered within 50 miles of Sluff/London type thing. Anymore than that and we work something out. Will post with buyers garnishing.

Get tomorrows classic today!

TRC ????

I don't need this myself, but I suspect many around here know my love of the Westone THunder 1a. Incredible woods and build quality. Also they are a modder's dream. And just for the record, Fender 63mm heel necks fit in the socket beautifully.
This is an excellent 150 quid's worth for somebody. GLWTS.

Nice bass, and I sooooo wanted one when I was a kid back in the cromagnon era.

Very off topice, but - Interesting juxtaposition on the book front : idiots guide to Buddhism, and Street Justice!

Buy the bass, and I'll throw them in. How's that for karma? :P :D

My 1st bass too! I have a picture of me with stone-washed jeans and a perm and a 1A. Priceless....

Although the over-hanging thumb technique has not!
