Let's get things going then. As an introduction, two tastings are being offered. This is now, but more things are a-coming. New winds blowing and all. Old shit is used when possible, new where necessary.

Thunderbird MK1.5

The beloved two transistor circuit, properly transitional and all. Signal amplification carried out by a pair of old mighty OC75s.
The enclosure finish on this one is something I'd like to achieve on a regular basis, but simply can't. Old hue, this has it. Please note the slight bleed on the "LEVEL" script from touching up the print.



Thunderbird Supa

My take on the later MKII Supa. Aspects of the "small board" mixed with the slightly more meaty later MKII. Tonally a bit more aggressive than my usual MKII, tight in both high and low end with some air in the midrange. Offers a clearer cleanup with added wah friendliness.
OC75s are being used along with Mullard "mustards" for both ear and eye candy.



Both units come with full warranty and a satisfaction guarantee. 7 days money back, less shipping.
