This is an Epiphone Thunderbird 4-string Electric Bass Guitar in Vintage Sunburst. Epiphone is made by Gibson, and this is modeled after the classic 60's American Gibson Thunderbird bass. This plays nicely, with good action. Strings are good. Frets are good. The neck is straight. All controls work without any scratchiness. The electronics work perfectly, with no unwanted noises, just the glorious fat bottom end tone you would expect from a T-Bird. I am including an authentic $200 custom fit factory original Epiphone bass case. The case is in excellent condition with all hinges and clasps working flawlessly. This sounds as good as it looks. The type of instrument that makes an impression. In a world full of vanilla Fender P-Bass players, be unique,.. play this ! This is in nice overall condition. It's a 2013 model, and it has some patina typical of an ten-plus year old instrument,.. light scratches, and one ding on the lower corner that has been touched up. There is no doubt that this has been broken in, but it has also been well taken care of, and it's not a beater. This bass guitar has been set up with a nice action for fast soloing. This is an awesome sounding, awesome playing and awesome looking electric bass guitar. Back in 1963, the Thunderbird electric bass was born, and Epiphone pays tribute to this classic axe with the Epiphone Thunderbird IV. This is a great entry-level bass for any player to dip their toes into before committing to a more expensive instrument. The reverse zig-zag alder body looks sleek and resonates a punchy sound perfect for rock enthusiasts. Two 2-TB Plus humbuckers take in the nuance of your performance and project a clear output ready to hit the stage. A maple neck features 20 frets of smooth playability and comfortable action. Check the reviews, and you'll see why players of all experience levels love this Epiphone 4-string! The Distinctive Thunderbird Look The atypical reverse zig-zag body shape certainly stands out in the crowd. It also offers a comfortable feel and an addicting playability your fingers won't be able to get enough of. Take a good look at the back of the instrument, and you'll see it has a mahogany center with alder "wings," yielding a deep, dark full-bodied sound, without adding too much weight. And with the "neck" pickup placed closer to the center of the body, the Thunderbird gives you the growling bass tone you want without too much low-end mud. Two 2-TB Plus Humbuckers At the bridge and neck are a set of 2-TB Plus humbuckers ready to electrify your performance and shake the stage. Both of these pickups boast a versatile and powerful sound that can be tweaked via independent volume controls and a master tone control. With the "neck" pickup mounted closer to the middle of the instrument, each note comes through without any unwanted low-end mud or buzz, no matter where you play.
