Gibson is the king of the guitar world, producing many masterpieces.
Guitars are particularly popular, but basses with their unique looks and rock-like sounds are also very popular.
This model is the Thunderbird, a classic for rock bassists.
Manufactured in 2001.
The body is mahogany, and the neck is a laminate type of mahogany and walnut, with a neck-through design.
The ebony fingerboard is really black, and I almost never use something like this these days.
Guitar brands are always looking for it, but it's still hard to find.
I don't think there really is.
It is characterized by a captivating sound packed with rich overtones on top of a loud low range.
Because of the narrow range, the strong and thick nuances feel strong.
Approximately 70% of the frets remain.
The truss rod works well.
The condition of the neck is that the nut groove of the 2.3 string is a little low, so the open string of the 2.3 string has some stickiness. Other than that point it's good.
The condition of the body and paint surface includes dents, scratches, and variations in the paint. (It's not sticky.)
The electrical system is in good condition.
The strap pins have been replaced with Schaller ones. You can see the pilot hole where the strap pin was attached at the position of the joint plate. Three PG screws are missing.
Controls: Neck PU volume, Bridge PU volume, Master tone
Nut width: 38.3mm
Bridge string pitch: 18.0mm
Scale: 34Inch
Year of manufacture: 2001
Country of manufacture: USA
For setup, we use D'addario EXL, which is highly trusted by professional musicians.
Characterized by a powerful attack and rich overtones, it is a performance worthy of being called a standard.
These are high-quality strings that bring out the maximum performance and character of your instrument, so please enjoy them as well.
