Samashton12 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Wasn't this a BC'ers project? If so, anyone know who it was? http://www.gumtree.com/p/guitars/gibson-epiphone-thunderbird-1970-s-replica/1048063272 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I think the one that was on BC was a Fenderbird project Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneKing Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 It looks nice. Is it a neck through Epiphone I wonder? Could be worth a go. Probably better than the modern 'real' thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzz Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 The Fenderbird/Laklandbird that looked a bit like that is mine (there's actually been two ), but that's a very nice one - the tuners, bridge and pickups will have cost as much as he's asking for it. I'm sorely tempted... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Bolt On IV's have the input jack on the face of the body, by the Tone & Volume pots) This seems too familiar.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NancyJohnson Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I think we're all guilty to pimping our gear to a degree, but people don't give a toot that the hardware came from the US. At the end of the day it's still just a bolt on Epiphone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
