The Epiphone Viola Bass Vintage Sunburst is a handy short-scale bass with traditional hollow-body construction that offers the sonorous sounds of the Beat era at an extremely attractive price.
Classic Viola Bass
The Epiphone Viola Bass’ traditional laminated flamed maple resonator body, combined with its shorter 30.5″ scale length, promises a sonorous sound with a percussive character that provides the optimal foundation for British Invasion-style sounds. Together with the slim-taper profile of the glued maple neck, the short-scale construction also ensures buttery-smooth playing characteristics.
Mini humbucker with passive switching
The pickup on the Viola Bass from Epiphone are two NY Mini-Humbuckers, which transport the warm Vintage-Soundof the EPIPHONE Viola Bass Vintage Sunburst Shortscale-Bass with natural dynamics to the amplifier. To adjust the tone, a straightforward passive circuit with separate volume and treble controls is available.
Authentic vintage-style hardware
Last but not least, a reliable hardware equipment in authentic vintage style completes the Epiphone Viola Bass. From the stylish viola scroll tailpiece, the strings are guided over a height-adjustable Epiphone Compensated-Saddle-Bridge made of wood, which ensures clean intonation with its offset fretwire inserts. The headstock also features Epiphone Premium Die-Cast tuners for precise and stable tuning.
