neepheid Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Up to you at the end of the day, it's your bass! I presume we're talking about an Epiphone T-bird here, of course! You'd be nuts to molest a vintage Gibson in this way, imho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Burpster Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Its your bass - do as you want/need...... IF you intend to keep it. If you dont then think long and hard about mods..... Thats my advice FWIW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry norton Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 +1 on all that - if it's an Epiphone then go for it. They're meant to be quite good, maybe soon to be regarded in the same way Japanese Squiers are, but I have no regrets modding my JV Squier, even though it'd be worth a fair bit more unmolested. If you've got an original non reverse Gibson Thunderbird then sell it and pay a luthier to make you whatever you want - you'll probably be able to buy a new rig and a car to drive it around in with the change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low End Bee Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Paint it fiesta red and bolt on a maple precision neck to make a nice Entwhistle style Fenderbird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
