Kim's Bass

neptuneg · 05.24.2007, 02:04 PM

Think she'll bring the Thunderbird back for the DDN shows?

CHOUT · 05.24.2007, 02:06 PM

I'd guess it's probably too big and clunky for her these days, with her wrist problems and all...it would be cool though.

king_buzzo · 05.24.2007, 02:07 PM

The sg would be cool!

Did they get it back from that store? the thunderbird bass, that is...

max · 05.24.2007, 02:36 PM

Mark is playing with them for the DDN shows too, right?

damn.

Toxa · 05.24.2007, 02:38 PM

sad to hear. I really miss Kim's best days.

Do you mean the bass from 'Freedom Guitar' that was stolen and found in a guitar store in L.A? That was Steve McDonald's bass, not Kim's.

Kim's thunderbird bass that she used live for the original DDN gigs is still in the band's possession. Jim played it on the nurse tour.

that would be my least favorite... along with SY's "fashion" from that era.

What was written on the Thunderbird? I never found out.

freekitten · 08.09.2007, 03:51 PM

what kind of bass does/did kim usually play...?

Sonic Youth 37 · 08.09.2007, 04:24 PM

She does play the thunderbird for the DDN stuff. I saw it in Chicago.

neptuneg · 08.09.2007, 05:03 PM

I know, I've seen it in pictures and at the Brooklyn show. I was very excited to see the Thunderbird.

something like
"..sister rock on
love, john bra..." (...= text missing/cancelled)

and something else I never figured out on the side of the knobs

Didn't see the price, they keep the halfway decent guitars behind the counter where you can't touch.
