I had the previous Epiphone Thunderbird bass the original one that came out years ago and sold it. It sounded muddy to me. I decided to give the new thunderbird a try since I love Epiphone and thought maybe the previous bass I had was a lemon. So I took the plunge and purchased this bass and WOW . I am in love. This bass sounds clear especially the low notes, and sounds fat. I used it in my home recording studio and it actually sounds clearer than my fender jazz bass. Only negative is that I wish it came with a case but for the sound you get out of this bass wow. I basically use it without any effects just a slight compression and a rock EQ on it and bam punchy tight and clear.
