Gibson USA Non-Reverse Thunderbird Ebony

Description

NON-REVERSE THUNDERBIRD EBONY

Since its release in 1965, the Non-Reverse Thunderbird has been the choice of avant-garde bassists who want to forge their own path and categorically refuse to follow the crowd. The distinctive style of the Non-Reverse Thunderbird and its huge, thunderous sound make it an essential instrument on stage and in the studio. You now have the opportunity to own one of these relatively rare birds with the release of the new Gibson USA Non-Reverse Thunderbird. Featuring a Non-Reverse mahogany body and a mahogany neck with an Indian rosewood fingerboard and 20 medium jumbo frets, each of the Thunderbird’s two pickups has its own volume control, allowing you to use them separately or blend them as you wish. A master tone control completes the simple yet highly effective control layout. The three-ply white pickguard sports the iconic Thunderbird graphic. The Non-Reverse Thunderbird is equipped with a Graph Tech nut. A three-point adjustable bridge allows for action and intonation adjustment, while Hipshot Ultralite tuners hold the strings at the other end and provide precise and stable tuning, all while keeping the headstock weight low to improve balance. A hard case is included.
