So, it's a Firebird bass, with 5 strings? I'm sure they could do this one, probably the same price as the IB-5. We would have to order 5 of them, so let's see what the reaction is.
I would do a firebird bass - Mahogany?
I've played a Thunderbird, and knowing how top-heavy they are I'm surprised anyone would want to add more weight to the headstock...
I've played Thunderbirds too, they are really top heavy as Fret said! I'd go for a 4 string rather than a 5 string
MMMM yes I like count me in :)
I'm in too
So any movement on this one? By my count there are 4 of us so far who would be interested. Anyone else?
Come on you know you want to and I really need a new 5 string lol
Ok, I'm keen. If someone can describe exactly what I'm supposed to be ordering, I'll get some in.
So, it's a Thunderbird shaped 5 string bass, reverse headstock (will probably be blank), 2 humbuckers, black hardware... what else?
I should mention we have some Gibson RD inspired basses due on this elusive "October" shipment. They look like this:
