{"product_id":"epiphone-thunderbird-64-silver-mist-original-392039","title":"Thunderbird '64 Silver Mist Original","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA Tribute to the 1964 Thunderbirds, with a More \"Tour-Ready\" and Modern Approach\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBorn to shake up the visual and sonic codes of its time, the Thunderbird became a benchmark in the 60s: radical lines, massive sonic balance, and a character perfectly suited to amplified music. To celebrate the 60th anniversary of this iconic design, Epiphone offers the \u003cstrong\u003eThunderbird '64\u003c\/strong\u003e with a decidedly vintage spirit, revisiting the aesthetic landmarks and playing feel associated with historic T-Birds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe idea is not just to \"redo the look,\" but to recapture what defines the model: a bass that responds quickly, holds its note, and delivers firm lows. At the same time, Epiphone adds choices oriented toward reliability and daily comfort (Graph Tech nut, simple and effective electronics, stable tuners) and provides a \u003cstrong\u003epremium gig bag\u003c\/strong\u003e for more secure transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFor Which Bassists and Styles?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith its \u003cstrong\u003elong 34\" \/ 863.6 mm scale length\u003c\/strong\u003e and very assertive sonic personality, the Thunderbird '64 is primarily aimed at \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate to advanced bassists\u003c\/strong\u003e who want an electric bass with a strong character, capable of carrying a band without being \"drowned out\" by guitars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt feels particularly at home in \u003cstrong\u003erock\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ehard rock\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003epunk\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003estoner\u003c\/strong\u003e: aggressive pick attack, strong fingerstyle, back-and-forth riffs, tight kick drum\/bass grooves... everything that demands a solid and clear foundation. The \u003cstrong\u003e2 volume + master tone\u003c\/strong\u003e control layout also allows rounding off the top end for warmer, fuller registers without losing the low-end foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eneck-through\u003c\/strong\u003e (through-neck) construction in \u003cstrong\u003e9-ply mahogany\/walnut\u003c\/strong\u003e is at the heart of the Thunderbird experience: it promotes a sense of continuity along the entire neck length, with generous \u003cstrong\u003esustain\u003c\/strong\u003e and a very \"immediate\" response. Mahogany naturally provides a \u003cstrong\u003ewarm\u003c\/strong\u003e, full, and dense foundation, while walnut contributes better note definition and firmer low-mid control. The result: a bass that sounds wide, with lows that remain structured and an attack that doesn't compress when played hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two \u003cstrong\u003eProBucker 760 Bass\u003c\/strong\u003e humbuckers reinforce this character: \u003cstrong\u003edeep lows\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003epowerful low-mids\u003c\/strong\u003e (ideal for \"pushing\" a rock trio), and presence that maintains clarity even when guitar distortion thickens. Practically, the neck pickup delivers breadth and body, perfect for round and solid lines. The bridge pickup offers more \u003cstrong\u003edefinition\u003c\/strong\u003e and attack, useful for pick playing, fast passages, and sharper articulations. Blending both yields a strong balance with a well-defined contour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the control side, the electronics are straightforward: \u003cstrong\u003e2 volumes\u003c\/strong\u003e to precisely balance each pickup, and a \u003cstrong\u003emaster tone\u003c\/strong\u003e to darken the sound when seeking a more vintage and moody grain. The \u003cstrong\u003eCTS 500K\u003c\/strong\u003e potentiometers provide smooth taper, handy for quick adjustments live: switching from a massive, mellow tone to a more open and biting register happens without surprises.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRecommended Compatible Accessories\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks to its \u003cstrong\u003e34\" \/ 863.6 mm scale length\u003c\/strong\u003e, this bass is compatible with \u003cstrong\u003elong scale string sets\u003c\/strong\u003e. A standard gauge (e.g., 45-105) suits most styles, while heavier gauges can improve tension and impact for pick attacks or lower tunings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:12;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eThunderbird\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInlays\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003epearloid dots\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:13;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eneck-through 9-ply mahogany\/walnut\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eEpiphone Vintage Bass Tune-O-Matic\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:14;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRibs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003emahogany wings\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTailpiece\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eEpiphone Vintage Bass Claw\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:4;--wb-r:15;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eSilver Mist\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuners\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eopen-gear with \u0026quot;Historic Clover\u0026quot;
