Gibson USA Limited Edition 50th Anniversary Thunderbird 4-String Electric Bass Bullion Gold Gold Hardware

An amazing golden edition of a four-string classic.




As the fierce four-string partner to the Firebird
guitar line introduced in 1963, the Thunderbird bass has long been a
stylish alternative—both onstage and in the studio—for adventurous
bassists. Now Gibson USA celebrates the Golden Anniversary of this
raging tone monster with a stunning tribute to the breed: the 50th
Anniversary Thunderbird Bass.

Thunderbird style, neck-through
construction, a pair of mighty T-Bird Bass pickups and a rock-solid
Thunderbird three-point bridge make the 50th Anniversary Thunderbird
bass the most playable and best-sounding bass on the scene. This
commemorative bass wears a gorgeous Bullion Gold finish in high-gloss
nitrocellulose lacquer, and a pick guard that’s hot-stamped with a gold
T-Bird logo and “50th Anniversary 1963-2013.” Add it up, and it’s both a
fitting tribute to a special anniversary, and a thunderous way to lay
down the rumble in any style of music.

Body and neck
The
core of this exceptional bass lies in its “through neck” construction,
with the neck and body core crafted from the same rugged multi-ply
mahogany tone wood blank for unparalleled strength and sustain. It takes
more work to build a bass this way, but the effort pays off in every
aspect of the instrument’s feel and response. Two solid mahogany body
wings complete the iconic Thunderbird package, which cuts a figure
recognized on stages the world over. The neck is carved to a comfortably
rounded profile that measures 0.790” at the 1st fret and 0.930” at the
12th. It is topped with a 20-fret fingerboard made from Grade-A
rosewood, inlaid with pearlod dot position markers.

Pickups and electronics
The
firm sonic foundation of the 50th Anniversary Thunderbird Bass is
cranked through a pair of extremely versatile contemporary T-Bird Bass
pickups, with ceramic magnets for enhanced punch and clarity. Individual
volume controls and a master tone control let you blend pickups as
desired for a wide range of sounds.

Hardware and plastics
Strings
are anchored at the body end by a rock-solid three-point Thunderbird
bridge with individually adjustable saddles, and high-quality Grover
tuners at the headstock—all gold-plated to match the commemorative look
of the 50th Anniversary Thunderbird Bass. Its black plastic pickguard is
hot-stamped in gold with the Thunderbird image and anniversary years.
