Exceptional Guitars

Since its release in 1965, the Thunderbird Non-Reverse has been THE bass of choice for avant-garde bassists who want to forge their own path and stubbornly refuse to follow the crowd. Its unique style and powerful, thunderous sound make it an essential instrument both on stage and in the studio.

Seize the opportunity to own one of these relatively rare "bird" guitars with the release of the new Gibson USA Non-Reverse Thunderbird. Featuring a Non-Reverse mahogany body and neck, a rosewood fingerboard, and 20 medium jumbo frets, it comes equipped with two Thunderbird pickups with individual volume controls, allowing for separate use or a custom blend. A master tone control completes this simple and effective setup. The three-ply white pickguard features the iconic Thunderbird design. The Non-Reverse Thunderbird is fitted with a Graph Tech® nut. A three-point adjustable bridge provides a wide range of action and intonation adjustments, while Hipshot® Ultralite® tuners ensure precise and stable tuning, while also lowering the headstock for improved balance. A hardshell case is included.
