Thin The Herd Guitars and Birdsong Guitars Announce the CBG 30.5 T-Bass

Thin The Herd Guitars CBG 30.5 T-Basses

Thin The Herd Guitars recently collaborated with Scott Beckwith of Birdsong Guitars to create the CBG 30.5 T-Bass. The bass takes elements from each of the companies’ instruments.

“Scott started with our familiar Model T body, then applied his signature ‘recipe’ for quality tone and ease-of-playability into the design. Loaded with EMG-sized, custom-wound PUNCHBUCKER Pickups – specified by Scott Beckwith. The T-Bass is built to produce the signature BIG SOUND players expect from a Birdsong short-scale bass!”

Other features on the bass include a maple neck, a bound body with belly cut, and a hi-mass bridge. It is available in alpine white, sea foam green, and robin blue.
