That's great man, glad to hear you're getting that same Thunder!!!
I really like that photo, you'd posted it on some other post a while back I think. It's a snapshot into young want-to-be bands everywhere!
Great stuff! You actually were on the drums!!!
And what's that guy doing to that hollow body?!

I haven't seen a Thunder or even a decent Westone in my neck of the woods for years. (I think I got them all

+1 Love the trans finishes, they are my favorite by far. Congrats Spidey, that is a beautiful instrument, you should be stoked. Enjoy!

That picture is great, makes me smile every time. We should start a picture thread of forum members rockin their guitars in the 70's and 80's. THAT would be fun and funny!

Oh yeah Hobs, you on to something there, let's do it!!! I've got a pic of me as a teenage butterball plying my Spectrum GT bass, I'm pretty sure anyway. If I find it, it's going up on this site!

Oh, and before I forget, that is one SWEET Thunder you found Spidey!!!
