the_undecided_one Posted December 28, 2010 Posted December 28, 2010 Hi all, I am currently looking for a 5 string bass to compliment my 4 string Schecter. While i would like to stay brand loyal, Schecter does not make a 5 string Thunderbird copy. sooo, what do you think of this bass? (the Epiphone Thunderbird Pro-V) worth the $$, or should i keep looking? thanks!

(the Epiphone Thunderbird Pro-V) worth the $$, or should i keep looking? thanks! I think they're pretty nice. But beware if you buy used, there was a batch of 2009 models with defective fretwire, And a batch of the five string models have had problems with the pickup registering the low B.
the_undecided_one Posted December 30, 2010 Author Posted December 30, 2010 hmm, defects... always reassuring! i'd be buying new, so hopefully the (seemingly?) recent bugs have been worked out.
Hungrycat Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Yeah, all that stuff was when they first came out. I haven't heard of any problems recently, but if you do buy used you have to watch out.
