Used Epiphone Thunderbird '64 Bass Guitar - Ember Red

Epiphone Thunderbird '64 Bass Guitar - Ember Red If there is one silhouette that defines rock 'n' roll rebellion, it’s the Thunderbird. Originally sketched by legendary automotive designer Ray Dietrich, this bass isn't just an instrument; it’s a statement. At Palen Music Center, we are thrilled to offer the Thunderbird ’64, a stunning tribute to the 60th anniversary of the original Gibson icon. With its massive nine-ply mahogany and walnut neck-through construction, this bass delivers the kind of sustain that feels like it could ring out until next Tuesday. Plug this beauty in, and you’ll immediately feel the "thunder" that earned this model its name. It’s loaded with a pair of ProBucker 760 humbuckers that capture that vintage, high-output punch used by icons like Nikki Sixx and Krist Novoselic. Whether you’re looking for a deep, rich growl or a mid-range bite that cuts through a dense mix, these pickups—paired with premium CTS potentiometers—deliver the goods with effortless style. Beyond the vintage vibes, this Ember Red machine is built for the modern stage. We’ve got Graph Tech nuts and high-ratio Clover-button tuners ensuring your tuning stays rock solid through the most aggressive sets. It’s got the look, the legacy, and the low-end authority of a priceless vintage specimen, but it’s ready to become the workhorse of your collection today. Why Buy A Guitar From Palen Music Center?
