![]() ![]() Most of these T'birds came in a natural mohagany finish with a slight Sunburst'd border around its face & a black band around its natural finished headstock.quite bold in its day. These were offered in a single pickup configuration call the T'bird II & a 2 pickup version called the T'bird IV. These early Thunderbirds & Firebirds had a very heavy neck/headstock design that fell forward as you played & were not a very popular player.hence the newer non-reverse style guitars & basses were born as they were far more balanced to play standing up for hours. They started production in 1963 along with its Firebird guitar sibling & had what were referred to as a "Reverse" style body shape.as compared to its later "Non-Reverse" style body shape which were more like a Fender Jazzmaster in design which was far more popular. The Gibson Thunderbird has to be one of the most desirable & most limited production run electric solid body basses of all time. ![]() Okay where do I begin with this bad boy being "The Ultimate" Bass in the world.so here it goes. ![]()
