82 Westone Thunder 1-A on ebay - looks mint

Thunder 1-A

I've been watching Westones for quite a while and the asking price seems to have rocketed recently.

Finally getting the recognition they deserve?

Yeah, undoubtedly so grab 'em while you can!!

In fairness though, the seller has set a very high start price and has no bidders at all (as of 13.08.2008). It's only really a reflection of the value if someone is actually prepared to pay that much .

I hope they do, then I can ask the same amount for my minty 1983 Thunder 1A Bass !

I have to agree with you on that one. Bearing in mind that the Thunders are quite easy to get hold of at reasonable prices; it's not the kind of money that I would be prepared to pay for one no matter how minty it was!

Pauline :flower: :queen:

I'm watching it, and really would like to have that one, as it's the clone of my long lost 1A. We'll see!

Ooops no it was not that one I was watching! It was this one, Thunder 1A

My opologies to anyone else who was bidding If it's as good as it looks then I'll have exactly what I lost all those years ago.

OK, now that's more like it !

I have the bass version of that model and paid about the same for it as the start price on your guitar. It's a heck of lot of wood and craftsmanship for the money!



Good luck in the auction, Wayne .

Do you call it Tiger?

I pick up the 1A tomorrow, will call in to see Zube while up the smoke.
