Thunder Struck Since its debut in 1965, the Non-Reverse Thunderbird has been the go-to choice for bassists who are eager to carve out their own path and refuse to blend in. With its unique design and massive, thunderous sound, this bass commands attention both on stage and in the studio. Now, you can own one of these rare 'birds with the new Gibson USA Non Reverse Thunderbird. Featuring a non reverse mahogany body and a mahogany neck paired with a rosewood fretboard and 20 medium jumbo frets, this bass is built for comfort and performance. Each of the two Thunderbird pickups comes with its own volume control, offering you the flexibility to adjust them independently or blend them for a customized sound. A master tone knob completes the streamlined, highly effective control setup. The three-ply white pickguard proudly showcases the iconic Thunderbird graphic. Designed with a Graph Tech nut, the Non-Reverse Thunderbird also features a three-point adjustable bridge for precise action and intonation adjustments, while the Hipshot Ultralite tuning machines ensure stable tuning and a lighter headstock for improved balance. A hardshell case is included for protection and safe storage. The great tone is thanks to the right combination of classic guitar building with a touch of tech. The slightly smaller size of the vintage OM body shape is comfortable and contributes to the instrument's focus. Michael Kelly's Port Technology, with its offset soundhole delivers the added projection and bigger tone. Add to that the solid spruce top and special bracing and this guitar delivers on sound.
