Value For Money :
Excellent
Made in Korea in 2007.
Gibson 3 point bridge.
The handle is 1.73 "at nut, 20 frets, enough for rock.
Equipped with two humbuckers, 2 volumes, 1 tone.
Passive bass.
The finish on mine its correct, and the shield is impeccable.
Like all Epiphone Thunderbirds, are the weak point: Mechanical. The Aiges require a helping rglage to harden. (A quarter turn of the screw butterfly)
UTILIZATION
The handle is very well, fairly broad, and very easy. The white paint is very pleasing to the touch.
Weight (approx. 4.2 Kg) is standard, so no problem for this except for chtifs ct, which I recommend doing some sports.
CASC is limited to treble to play box 15. APRs do not think about it. But this bass is made for the big fat pulsating line well.
His question, well we stick and roll ... no decision-head to understand how it works!
So yes, it is a bit dsquilibre, releases them when all it ends up gently by pointing to the ground, but who cares, who plays bass with no hands?? And it's not a scoop ...
For my part, I wear low-middle position and the right arm leaning mostly on the hollow body. No risk of tipping forward. And yet, I use the belt clip to its original location.
SOUNDS
Possible sounds are very close to the Gibson original, and really very satisfactory.
Frankly, this bass is pure mass murder in its price range.
It gets mostly a warm, well rounded, with a very clear attack and brilliance in the mids, and very very mahogany Gibson. The effective tonality can refine the balance between the pickups.
Do not look for the bass with lots of sounds, in fact, it has only one sound that can be modulated in the attack, roundness, and treble. But what a sound!
OVERALL OPINION
Small price, big sound and look that kills ...
I bought a Blackbird ago that convinced me on his T-birds Epi ... I needed a reliable bass scene, and beautiful sounding, and as I crack on the T-birds, I bought it.
A simple tool that works very well, and must withstand a fairly intensive use, provided that we take care of (maintenance of the key, flight case, gigbag ...). Very good report quality price for a rocker.
With the exprience I'll also buy the T-bird pro V of the same brand.
