Epiphone EB-3 SG Bass, Cherry - Secondhand

Full Description

A ferocious bass tone

If you’re after a bass sound that covers all bases, then the Epiphone EB-3 is just what you need. Equipped with a Sidewinder humbucking pickup which produces a powerful low-end bass sound that can be moulded to suit a wide variety of styles and genres and is assisted by the NYT pickup on the neck – you’ll be sure to be sounding as good as you look! Focused primarily on clarity, the Sidewinder will provide you with clear and punchy lows, a crisp mid-range, and a bass sound that translates through the mahogany body’s natural resonance to create a rich, rounded tone with excellent definition.

Vintage SG design

The EB-3 Bass Guitar is crafted with the same classic design and feel as the vintage SG bass, which was the only bass guitar offered by Gibson or Epiphone during their golden era – providing a stunning feel and performance that many bassists fell in love with. Its mahogany body and neck is accompanied by the pau ferro fretboard, delivering a gloriously warm tone and sustain for days on end. The addition of the pau ferro helps to create a smooth articulation, while the slim taper neck profile ensures a highly comfortable playability. Decorated with classic trapezoid dot inlays, the neck adds further to the iconic SG-style aesthetic – especially when paired with the vintage cherry finish – you’ll be sure to stand out on any stage.

Built for long-lasting convenience

Discover your own voice with the 3-way pickup selector switch, next to volume and tone controls which provide optimum tonal shaping, allowing you to find that sweet spot no matter what style. The sturdy tuners nickel tuners pair with the fully adjustable bridge to create a balanced playing feel which will require no strain on the hands at all. They’ll also hold you guitar in tune for much longer, especially when paired with the plastic nut, so you don’t have to worry about re-tuning in between every song.
