Epiphone Thunderbird E1 4-String Bass in Vintage Sunburst
The Thunderbird E1 honors the original Thunderbird Bass first issued from the legendary Kalamazoo factory in 1963. The Thunderbird’s unique “reversed” zig-zag body design and equally distinct headstock was the brainchild of legendary automotive designer and visionary Ray Dietrich who was enlisted by the Kalamazoo factory to bolster the electric guitar line and help solidify the factory’s eminent rank among solidbody electric guitar manufacturers. Featuring Epiphone TB Plus humbuckers and a mahogany body.
