They have a Thunderbird and a Rickenbacker. I just saw this one on Adirondack's home page. Absolutely beautiful. Do they sound like the real thing? How is build quality?

AustinLeftybass just bought the Tbird, there's some impressions in his thread here in "basses". You can ask him for some more info.

I have one, I think its sweet as hell. I did swape out the,hardware for black, I got mthe ighty mite machines, they're lighter. I moved the strap button to where the neck joins on the angle part, I used flush mount strap locks. Zero neck dive. I also moved the output Jack to the side, hate top mounts. The pick ups are questionable to Me. Its a sweet bass, mahogony and good workmanship, well worth it

I dig it, finally have a 'bird. Totally happy with mine. Installed the strap locks that the seller included and have no neck dive with a leather strap. Sounds great, cuts through anything. Heavy bass tho'. Nice gigbag.
