{"product_id":"gibson-custom-thunderbird-tobacco-burst-perimeter-original-412346","title":"Thunderbird Tobacco Burst Perimeter Original","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA Modern Thunderbird, True to the Spirit of 1963\u003c\/h3\u003e Born in the early 1960s, the Thunderbird stood out with its bold asymmetrical design and a sonic identity built to command the low end with authority. This current version brings back the \u003cstrong\u003eReverse shape\u003c\/strong\u003e that made the model legendary, while adopting a more accessible approach for everyday use: a \u003cstrong\u003emahogany set neck\u003c\/strong\u003e, a modern profile, and hardware designed for both the stage and the studio. The result: the iconic look is still there, with more immediate playability and easier setup.\u003cbr \/\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWho is it for, and what styles does it suit?\u003c\/h3\u003e This Thunderbird is aimed at the \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate to advanced bassist\u003c\/strong\u003e looking for an electric bass with a strong personality, capable of occupying space in a mix effortlessly. It excels in \u003cstrong\u003erock\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ehard rock\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003estoner\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003epunk\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003emetal\u003c\/strong\u003e, and any style where a dense low end and assertive presence are expected. The \u003cstrong\u003elong 34\" \/ 863.6 mm scale length\u003c\/strong\u003e provides the familiar string tension preferred by bassists accustomed to modern standards, with excellent definition on low notes.\u003cbr \/\u003e \u003ch3\u003eThe Sound\u003c\/h3\u003e The combination of a \u003cstrong\u003emahogany body\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003emahogany neck\u003c\/strong\u003e promotes a rich low end, full low mids, and natural sustain, perfect for lines that need to remain stable and thick. The two \u003cstrong\u003eEB Bass humbuckers\u003c\/strong\u003e deliver a powerful, full-bodied sound: the neck pickup emphasizes depth and warmth, while the bridge pickup provides more attack and bite to cut through the mix more effectively.\u003cbr \/\u003e The electronics are deliberately straightforward and effective: \u003cstrong\u003eone volume control per pickup\u003c\/strong\u003e for precise control over each source (neck pickup solo, bridge pickup solo, or an exact blend), plus a \u003cstrong\u003emaster tone control\u003c\/strong\u003e for moving from an open, lively tone to a darker, rounder register. The \u003cstrong\u003eHipshot Supertone\u003c\/strong\u003e bridge makes it easy to fine-tune the intonation and action, allowing you to adapt the instrument to your playing style (fingerstyle, pick playing, or hard attacks) and string gauge.\u003cbr \/\u003e \u003ch3\u003eRecommended Compatible Accessories\u003c\/h3\u003e To retain the response and tension intended by the long scale length, we recommend a \u003cstrong\u003e34\" \/ 863.6 mm long-scale bass string set\u003c\/strong\u003e (nickel or steel, depending on the desired bite). A \u003cstrong\u003estandard strap\u003c\/strong\u003e is also suitable for playing standing up, which is useful for a bass with a stage-oriented body design.\u003cbr \/\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:9;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\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)\"\u003eacrylic dots\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:10;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eN\/A\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)\"\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:11;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--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)\"\u003eset neck\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKnobs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eBlack Top Hat with silver reflector\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:4;--wb-r:12;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eSlimTaper\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck pickup\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eEB Bass (humbucker)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:5;--wb-r:13;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut width\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e1.6\u0026quot;
