2000 model, Made In USA

Limited Edition, Custom Shop release

Thunderbird Bass IV, in custom Sapphire Blue, Nitrocellulose finish
(Just a shade darker than Pelham Blue)

Very small production number release, for YAMANO Japanese distribution ONLY

Best sources indicate less than 100 were made in this finish between the years 2000-01

Being this is a June 12th, 2000 model it is most likely one of the earliest made

Solid Mahogany body, neck-thru Mahogany/Walnut neck.

Sleek and smooth Ebony fingerboard

34″ scale neck, 12" radius

1.6" nut, 3 point adjustable bridge.

Dual Ceramic T-Bird Plus pickups

The punch and clarity of these pickups is just plain ridiculous
You will never know the tonal possibilities until you play a Thunderbird bass
Excellent balanced output, great resonance with both clarity and plenty of warmth

Nice action and set up, comfortable neck, weight, and balance

Includes the Original Gibson Hard Case

ITEM CONDITION
All machinery, electrical, and pickups are without issue. Some surface marks, small impressions/dings/dents/dimples, there have been numerous tiny paint chips that have had colour matched spot fills. The original tuners have been replaced at some point – then matching original style tuners re fitted. This has left tiny pilot holes from the last old tuners. They have been filled and the paint touched up. Dent to 2nd fret area, G string side, edge fret board (does not affect playability) – all as pictured. Combination lock of hard case has been disengaged and the latch discarded.
