Full Description
View Full DescriptionA Gibson masterpiece
The Gibson Rex Brown Signature Thunderbird is a premium grade, signature offering which has been hand-crafted by some of the world's greatest guitar makers. If you’re looking for a tonally rich and diverse instrument which is produced with passion and attention to detail, then look no further. The combination of a mahogany body and neck with a rosewood fretboard brings a diverse richness to the voice of your bass – you can expect powerful lows and warmth across the scale.
This rounded profile neck is produced fundamentally for the comfort and playability of the musician, ensuring minimal strain at all times. It also manages to supress any fierce low-end aggression with four carefully and accurately balanced strings, held firm by the hipshot bass bridge to guarantee a comfortable action, stable tuning as well as a glorious resonance. Finally, this guitar is finished with a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer which will allow you to glide across the neck with absolute ease - maximising your creativity on stage, at home, or in the studio.
Ferocious bass tones
The Gibson Rex Brown Signature Thunderbird is equipped with two Rexbucker Thunderbird pickups that have been developed by Gibson and bass legend Rex Brown specifically for his signature model. Developing his sound over the years with Pantera and Down - few musicians out there have more experience in finding that tonal sweet spot on a bass guitar. That's why he has worked closely with Gibson on these pickups to deliver a rounded, rich and yes, very powerful bass sound that can be moulded quickly and easily through the two volume and master tone knobs. This allows you to find your own unique take on a bass sound that inspired a generation.
Timeless retro design
Combine classic bass style from the gold hardware and timeless black finish, with the space-age, retro Firebird body shape. This bass certainly stands out in a crowd. The simple finish to the body is one continuous colour which is both vintage and modern in perfect harmony. The natural aesthetic of the ebony fretboard brings a certain character to the guitar that is complemented by the rest of the more modern visual features. Included with a Modern Series hardshell case, this instrument is the entire package - and more.
