Gibson Thunderbird IV CW 2000

Gibson Thunderbird IV CW 2000

Gibson's electric bass ``Thunderbird'' was introduced in 1963 and, like the popular Fender Plebe, has been a standard model used by many musicians such as Nikki Sixx.

This time we have arrived "Thunderbird IV", made in 2000!As indicated by "CW", the color is Cream White and the weight is 4.22 kg.

This is the most standard spec "4" with a reverse shape, neck-through structure, and 2 humbucker pickups.Currently, when we talk about Thunderbird, we basically refer to this model.The sound produced by the mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard, and mahogany wing material is bold and suitable for playing with a pick, and the deep bass supports the band's ensemble.

Equipped with an originally designed humbucker, it produces the thick and heavy sound unique to Thunderbird.The controls are 1 tone and 2 volumes, and you can adjust the volume of each pickup individually, so you can create a wide range of sounds, such as centering the front pickup for a mellow, gentle sound, or centering the rear pickup for a firmer, more aggressive sound.

It was a high-quality bass that produced a powerful and core tone, and you could feel the unique atmosphere of Gibson.The sound making is simple and easy for anyone to use.I get the impression that it looks good and has aged well.The right amount of tan creates a sense of style, and it can be seen that it has become popular.The ebony fingerboard is also a good point, different from the current model.Why not take this opportunity to experience the classic Gibson bass sound and unique warm tone made with high-quality wood and construction from the early 2000s.
