Built for NAMM 2026 – Available Now

This instrument was featured as a display and demo model at NAMM 2026. Because it was handled by attendees during the show, it may exhibit minor surface imperfections or light play wear. However, the bass has undergone a full professional inspection to ensure it is in perfect working order and plays beautifully. We have adjusted the sale price to reflect its "ex-demo" status, offering a fantastic value on a world-class instrument.

⚡️ The Thunderhorse: Coffee Edition ☕️

This Thunderhorse represents a significant step in our design journey. Having designed the sleek, pickguard-less aesthetic of the Rebel bass, we challenged ourselves to create a Thunderhorse featuring no pickguard.

⚙️ Sound Engineering: Six Ways to Dominate

This is where the magic happens. We threw out the standard switches and dropped in a 6-position rotary selector. This isn't just versatility; it's a weapon:

Neck

Middle

Bridge

N + M

M + B

Full-Stack (All Three)

The tone is built on passive EMG HZ pickups, perfectly matched for maximum impact:

Neck (Thunderbird): Thick, warm, and ready to get nasty. Your low-end foundation.
Middle (Precision): The definition anchor. Pure punch, pure mids.
Bridge (Jazz): Glassy attack and articulation that cuts through a stadium mix.

💎 Custom Spec. No Compromise.

The finish is a killer, one-off "Coffee" , hand-painted by Madelyn to highlight the deep grain of the Mahogany body. This thing looks like it sounds: expensive.

Powering the whole rig is an 18-volt EMG BQ30 3-band preamp. That's headroom you can actually feel.

Your command center, running neck-to-tail:

6-Way Rotary Selector.
Master Volume (with a true bypass for instant Active/Passive switching).
3-Band EQ: Bass, Mid, Treble. Dial in your destruction.

Final detail: It's the first Thunderhorse with the output jack stealth-mounted on the side. This is next-level design. We don't just build basses, we build benchmarks.
