Epiphone Thunderbird IV Electric Bass Guitar

The Epiphone Thunderbird IV Reverse Bass is Epiphone’s most distinctive bass guitar to date. The Thunderbird features the classic reverse body styling and dual humbuckers just like the Gibson originals! The Thunderbird IV features an alder body and a 34 inch scale bolt-on maple neck with a rosewood fretboard and dot inlays, and warm and phat dual humbucking pickups. The Goth version of the Thunderbird sports a mahogany body with a black finish and a maple neck with a rosewood fretboard and a special inlay on the 12th fret and a special pickguard with a Celtic cross design. It is equipped with dual humbuckers as well.

Quality: Very well, very durable.
Features: I love everything on this bass, the only thing i would change is I would put the cable jack on the bottom instead of near the volume knobs.

Playability and Feel: The feel is great, I play some fast stuff and I had no problem getting around on the neck.
Tone: The tone is just great, you can pretty much get whatever you want out of this.
Finish: The paint job looked amazing, it's a great looking bass.
Action: The action out of the box was perfect, played amazingly right from the start.

Subject:Unbelievable Value - Thunderbird
Quality: Great attention to detail and fit-and-finish. I like the bolt-on neck. I'm a Fender guy. The controls and tuners feel good. Hard to believe for the price.
Features: 1st and foremost is the LOOK. This bass looks great! Another great feature is the highly adjustable bridge. The truss rod is adjusted from the headstock. These are great features if you do your own work.
Sound: The pickups-wood combination give this bass a warm yet aggressive sound. It has a full, rounded sound from dark to bright. Versatile. No hum or buzz. I never thought I could like humbuckers but this bass sounds great.
Playability and Feel: I mentioned I am a Fender guy. This bass feels and plays really nice. I has a good, solid feel - sort of a 'slender' feel. It fingers really nice and has plenty of thumbrests with the dual humbuckers. Neck dive? yes. A wide strap helps quite a bit. I moved the strap pin.
Tone: It has great bottom and highs. Play with pickup volume mix and you can make it growl like a Fender Jazz bass. Boom, dank and everywhere in between.
Finish: The burst has a really nice fade and the finish is perfect! Smooth - no flaws! Hard to believe for the price.
Action: This bass shipped with really nice action.

Subject:No Regrets!
Quality: My T-bird is very solid, very well built. If Icould change anything I would prefer to have it like the Gibson neck through set up. for a bolt on neck it still has very good sustain.
Features: I can't think of anything this bird is lacking. It's a work-horse of a bass, always ready to rock and/or laydown some thick blues
Sound: Wonderful! I've got a 7 ban E.Q. on my amp combo and the sound shapeing is off the charts
Playability and Feel: A little heavy and prone to neck diving (but who plays without holding on to the neck?) The neck is a bit thick but that's compared to a j bass. It feels good and solid and is actually comfortable
Tone: Thick and smooth like a Wendys' frosty until I switch channels and mess with the E.Q. and it gets quite a bit brighter and thunderous..ooh yeah!
Finish: Perfect, flawless and the pictures don't do it justice.
Action: Very good I've never changed a thing since I pulled it out of the box.

Subject:Great bass guitar for a nice price!
Quality: This bass is made well and is very dependable when it comes to performance.
Features: The bass is not super heavy like the one I used to own. It's just right.
Sound: It's tone is super. No real fret buzzing and easy to play.
Playability and Feel: It feels fast and the neck is a perfect fit for my hand, not too big that I can't play fast. I mainly use a pick because I'm really a guitar player but picking the strings is effortless.
Tone: The pickups are great and the tone is easily adjustable for the type of sound I need.
Finish: The stain looks awesome. This bass looks and feels like a much more expensive bass than it is. You can't go wrong with its value?
Action: Out of the box, the action was excellent.
