- 2015 Thunderbird Bass, Vintage Sunburst, SN:150045992, 8 lbs. 1.5 oz.
The core of the 2015 Thunderbird Bass lies in its "through-neck" construction, with the neck and central body section fashioned from the same rugged nine-ply mahogany and walnut tonewood blank for unparalleled strength and sustain. Two solid mahogany body wings complete the distinctive Thunderbird look. This full-scale 34" bass features a rosewood fingerboard that carries 20 jumbo frets, acrylic pearl dot inlays. Gibson has employed a new, thicker slab of rosewood for the fingerboard. The increased mass improves sustain and the board is buffed and oiled for maximum playability. The factory 3-Point PLEK set-up delivers smooth action and improved intonation right out of the box.
New for 2015, the Thunderbird comes powered by a pair of Alnico V bass pickups. Gibson has added coil-tapping capabilities to further expand the tonal variety of this bass. Black Chrome hardware includes Gibson tuners and a three-point full-contact T-Bird bridge, which preserves every last string vibration for a wide range of unique tonal possibilities. Includes Gibson Hardshell Case.
