Very nice! Deb has one that's pretty similar, I think she has a black one.
I played a white Gibson Thunderbird bass when I was in a band. I really loved that bass!
Lets see some studio pics

Good luck with taking it anywhere..
When I was but a callow metel dickhead yoof I used to have an Epiphone Explorer guitar (it was shite!), but never had the money for a proper hard case so tried to put it in a soft guitar case with the pointy bit sticking out. Didn't really work...

Wow.
I too was a young metaller in the, er, past (haven't touched geetars since) and that looks gorgeous.
If I were to pick up (and try to learn) a bass now to add to the synths and I like deep, dubby or hard funky Armand Van Helden speed-garagey bass, is there a particular model that'd do it? i.e. Thunderbird or which one from the Fender stable?

Haha. Its actually lighter than my other electric guitars (fender Tele + Schecter Extreme). The Schecter is heavy as f**k. I tend to sit down when I'm playing these days anyway.vurt wrote: Sat Jun 08, 2019 11:30 amit's very nice n allthecontrolcentre wrote: Sat Jun 08, 2019 12:57 am I got a new bass guitar ...

I would probably go for a Fender Precision if I hadn't got the Explorer. I've always liked how they sound.samsam wrote: Sat Jun 08, 2019 3:03 am Wow.

Thanks, PBass looks like an idea.
I looked at the price for a new Thunderbird, my goodness I didn't realise guitars could cost that much hehe
Edit: ah, yours is an Epiphone, OK, comes in a lot cheaper than the Gibson. Forgive my newbness, this must be like Fender / Squier

My little modular as it stands...
The little case is Machined 6061-T6 Precipitation-Hardened Aluminum Alloy, 1/4 " ends 3/8 " walls.
Perfect if you are wanting your eurorack case to be able to stop a 50 caliber round.
$100 cheaper than the make noise skiffs actually.

I think older ones are American and Korean, but I think most of them are made in China now.thecontrolcentre wrote: Sat Jun 15, 2019 1:55 am That looks lovely ... must resist the modular temptation

I solved that by adding a larger 4K screen to my studio specifically to have a lot of screen estate for running VCV Rack
CrimsonWarlock aka TechnoGremlin, Moved to Reason and Rack Extensions exclusively (from Reaper and VSTs) several years ago.
