"The sixx dosent fall far from the tree"
Sound: I LOVE the sound. when I play it, it sounds just like Nikki. I play metal, and it sounds great!!! Feature: Love the bass, wish it had tunning/ volume, but, i prob wouldent change it anyway Ease of Use: I love it, feel great, looks great. Plays like a dream!!! really easy to get the sound I want Quality: Quality is amazing. strong, a bit heavy, but I like that. Value: Amazing. got it for under $450.00. would have paid ALOT more for this baby!!! Manufacturer Support: Havent needed to do anything. when I got it, it took 2 days to come in. The Wow Factor: Looks amazing. sexy, sleek, iron cross' really put it over the edge. clear pick guard and logo work really well. flat black and black hardware make it. Its like your playing Sixx himself!!! Overall: AMAZING!!!! go get on... right now.... i mean it, GO!!!!!

"LOVE it!!!!!!"
Sound: I was initially hesitant to purchase an Epiphone but after plugging it in and hearing the sound, I was sold. It is honestly one of the best sounding basses I've ever played. I can't wait to record with it. It's definitely an instrument for rock/metal. VERY solid sounding. Feature: I REALLY like the fact that is has no knobs. In a rock/metal band do you really need them? Ease of Use: The only complaint I had was the balance when wearing a strap. Like all Thunderbirds, it's a little neck heavy. I moved the top strap button to one of the screws on the neck plate and problem was solved. Simple fix. Quality: I'm REALLY surprised at the quality of the instrument. Like I said earlier, I was hesitant about purchasing an Epiphone but it can definitely hold its own against higher priced basses. I work in a music store and get to play new basses every day and I can honestly say the Blackbird is just as good, if not better than, many higher priced instruments. The sound and quality FAR surpass the other Epiphone Thunderbird models. This thing might as well say Gibson on it. Value: I honestly would have paid a lot more for this bass. The $400 price tag initially made me assume it was a cheaply made instrument but I couldn't have been more wrong. Manufacturer Support: I've had NO problems with the instrument. I'm VERY happy with my purchase. The Wow Factor: I bought this bass because I'm a big Motley Crue fan. Even if you're not, any rock/metal fan will love the look and sound of this instrument. Overall: I've been playing for over 20 years, played MANY basses, thousands of gigs, made a few records, toured the east coast, and I REALLY like this bass. Don't let the lower price fool you. This bass is AWESOME!!!!
