So I jammed on a pelham blue epi firebird a few months back. And played a single pickup red Gibby the other day. I think my next guitar purchase will be a firebird for sure. I'm in love.

ive often thought about getting a t-bird bass but I never seem to pull the trigger.

looks like your epi is the same as what ill probably be getting by the end of jan as the pelham blue is on sale for $299 at guitar center, have many issues with the place, but price is always an issue. that bass is gorgeous, what's the story behind it?

The bass is just a sick fantasy of mine. I had money from selling another bass and the body and neck were in the Warmoth showcase. I didn't really need another 8-string, I did it just because I could. It sounds huge, but it's a bit neck heavy with all the tuners.

Epi Firebird is great, it's my main guitar for heavy stuff. I got it for next to nothing, just installed a set of Duncans and gave it a good setup and it easily keeps up with guitars 2-3 times the price.

I love the look of thunderbirds but I absolutely hate the way that they play

Yea - not a fan of the T/F-bird basses - the reach to the lower frets throws me off - they sure do look Purdy tho
Last night I heard the ghetto bird circle.... as I was eatin' fish.... and watchin' Erkel...

Also love the look of a Thunderbird but at this point I'm so married to the feel of a P-Bass I'm stuck with it.

Feels physically weird to play anything else, even a Jazz bass.
