Ambler - Icarus - Thunderbird Custom Build £950 South Normanton

[Stofferson]

It is time I start preparing my mind, body and wallet for a mortgage

with that in mind, I regretfully place this absolute unit up for sale.

 

Commissioned this around 10 years ago and took delivery on my 30th birthday June 2017.

I've barely touched it in the last few years and its not been out on a gig since way before covid.

 

Thunderbird styling with jazz pickup.

 

Body is a piece of figured white ash with a trans black stain

 

Maple Neck with Wenge fingerboard 41.5mm nut width

EMG J pickups with VVT

Black Schaller Bridge

Black Clover tuning pegs.

34 inch scale.

Heavy duty flight case

Its solid, it is not light weight.

Plays and sounds like a hot jazz bass on sunset strip.

 

More info to come, any questions welcome

Unsure how to price this, so please get in touch.

Wow that's awesome. I have an Ambler Juliet guitar and John's work is definitely up there with the best of the luthiers.

Is this black or trans-purple? Also, what's the neck construction? Set, bolt on, through? Any photos of the rear would be great! 🙂
