Slowing becoming un-noob.
I was offered a 5 string Epiphone thunderbird bass guitar for 520 with hard case included. It's in pretty good condition. I need to know within like a half hour. THanks for the help!

Nah, I'd pass. It's one string too many. This especially stands if it's a goth Epiphone, the alder body sunburst guys are pretty neat, but the goths are just mediocre.

Ha, it's an older guitar. A rare one with p and j pickups, not humbuckers, and yeah, it's like non-reversed bass also and yeah, I'm getting it. Thanks for the help though.

sounds like a sweet bass. when you get it, you should take some pics and post them.

congrats.
 
Totally go with it, though if it is an older Epi the hardware and electronics will be iffy.
 
Yeah, it's a shwang bass. My friend was actually asking me about it so I said I'd help him out and It was off of ebay, I'm not sure if his bid won or not, but yeah. I didn't mention that before because I thought it might be a prized instrument that one of you guys might outbid on :cool: But yeah, I'll find out from my friend tomorrow whether he got it or not, I'd say 95% that he did. I can't wait to take it from him to play :p I love playing bass, and a rare 5 string? hell yes. AND he'll probably leave it in the studio we practice in, which is in my backyard...oh yeah. I'll definitely take pics.

You absolutely definately should think about maybe considering it!
 
Yeah, my friend's dad f'ed up the ebay bid and didn't press a button to place the bid or somethin' and yeah, someone outbid him by 5 bucks. I was pissed, but my friend just bought a regular 4 string thunderbird. Oh well.
