NBD HELP! Damage! Cracks! Return or Keep? Gibson Thunderbird Content!

That's too bad, it looks great in red.

For those who blame Gibson....don't. That's not shoddy workmanship, that bass was likely dropped somewhere along the line. As someone already mentioned, it looks like a typical whiplash cracked neck.

Oh well, stuff happens. I'm sure the OP can locate another one easily enough. Cheers.

But it's so fun to blame Gibson for everything :D I'm with you this looks like the bass was the victim of an accidental drop or an angry employee.
