Still the original PU's but the coloring of the letters MEC are worn out. I really like the Sound, cuts throu the Band without overhelming the other Instruments.
Not so good for sitting in front of my computer and playing with headphones to songs/cover. I prefer the my Corvette in this case for it has more sound versitility.
Beautifull looking Thumb you got, the wood grain is stunning!
Well, Shedua and Ovangkol are synonyms. Also Bubinga and Ovangkol are the same genus* but different species*.Also today I found out that ovangkol is actually shedua
The BO sounds different from the NT in my opinion which has more of an impact on sound than the difference between ovangkol/bubinga on a Thumb. At least as I am concerned you won't notice the difference between the woods when playing in a Band.Will the BO be that much different from NT tone wise? Does the Ovangkal sound good on a Thumb?
Hello Fellow Thumb Owners.
I just purchased a ‘99 Thumb 5 BO with Ovangkal body/neck and Wenge Board. I will post some pictures of it when I receive it. I’m excited.
Just a few questions. Will the BO be that much different from NT tone wise? Does the Ovangkal sound good on a Thumb? I was searching around and read a few old threads were people had said the Thumb BO did not have a lot of low end.
Thanks

I guess this is fake? I'm not sure!
