Thunderbird/Blackbird

OK, I'm needing one badly. Anyone with a line on one (preferably the Blackbird), please let me know. I'm keeping a watchful eye on eBay and GBase.
Thanks.

That other one is a no go?

thanks marc. that first one has had the neck repaired. no go for me. the second one i am watching. the 3rd is out of my price range.

steve, i'm watching that other one as well. it's not in the best of shape, but if the price doesn't skyrocket, it may be worth it. i'd prefer black, of course.

there are also a few on craig's list that i am awaiting replies on.

thanks!

Yeah, but the one with the neck repair could have been the same one he tossed in the crowd at the brides of Destruction show in Vegas..

Nice to see that the T-Bird bug has bitten you. Played mine last night after ignoring it for a few weeks. I forgot how good it sounded.

You won't be disappointed.

haha, i don't think it was owned by NIkki. i'm not comfy with owning a previously neck-snapped bass.

Sean, this 2002 Ebony might be a nice compromise...

No prob... let me know if you find an older one in nice shape. Hopefully it's in a location where I can check it out.
