..I've got the pix here 'cause I asked for them and it's just the body - no neck - which has a lovely flame job paintwork and as he says a non-OEM p'up...

it's just awful....

Put em up then

Does it balance things up a bit if this red Thunder has been restored a bit? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Westone-Thunder-1_W0QQitemZ230509261461QQcategoryZ2384QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp4340.m263QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DDLSL%252BSIC%26its%3DI%26itu%3DUCI%252BIA%252BUA%252BIEW%252BFICS%252BUFI%26otn%3D8%26pmod%3D260644434644%252B260644434644%26po%3D%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D6427268682267838946

I want to see what this thing looks like too.

Alrighty, then... you have been warned....

Oh dearie me.

That's my guitar Mr Twit and it would have been junked if I had not rescued it from a previous owner !! Sounds and plays a treat. Want to liberate the moths from your wallet and buy it?

Props to you for rescuing it. But sadly I want an active Thunder 1A.

T1A v T1 ?
In my opinion the A is plop, sorry doesnt add much better off leaving the batteries go flat.

Good Lord! Just makes ya wanna jump on yer Harley and lay rubber, eh?
On the plus side, the bridge and pup look OK.

I don't think AT was being disrespectful, Hoax - just making an observation! And indeed; good on ya for rescuing it; well done! Have you got the OEM bridge p'up or has that gone for good?

Yes, I thought the nicely restored Thunder would cheer Corsair up a bit. I hedged my language a bit in case there was something about the guitar I hadn't noticed, non original this or modified that. Apologies if there was any offence.

No offense taken. I hedged my language just in case any offense was intended!

The guitar has a gold plated bridge which is a great match for the original. The pickup was dead in one coil so has now become a MMK/45 Dimarzio zebra stripe hybrid on my latest Westbury.

Get buying A.T - If not mine, anyone - There are so many coming on to the market now there is always a great choice.

Yeah, c'mon, man - you're dragging the chain a bit!!!

I haven't seen so many Thunders available in such a short time. So, yeah, move it! I'm sparking up the flame thrower!
