Epiphone EB-3 Gloss Cherry 2009 Electric Bass

Here for sale we have a Epiphone EB-3 electric bass in Gloss Cherry finish. Made in 2009 this bass features a set-neck construction comprising of a Mahogany body, Mahogany neck and a 22 Medium Jumbo fret Rosewood fingerboard. The hardware featured consists of a 3-point top loading Bridge and a set of open gear tuning machines. This bass is fitted with a NYT Bass Mini Humbucker in the bridge and a Sidewinder Humbucker in the neck, these are wired to a 3-way selector switch and individual volume and tone controls for each pickup. The Mahogany neck plays very well, with the SlimTaper ‘D’ profile sitting very comfortably in the hand and offering ergonomic thumb positioning and easy reach in all registers. The 1.4” nut width is perfect for those with smaller hands or guitarists moonlighting as bass players. Certainly, the register feels highly manoeuvrable, with the gloss finish to the rear further assisting with smooth navigation of the fretboard. The 12” radius Rosewood is supremely pleasant under the fingers and allows for a variety of bass techniques to be played with ease. The pickups installed in this bass deliver powerful, full-bodied bass tones that will add serious depth to any band's sound. The Sidewinder Humbucker in the neck position drives the sound, offering a warm yet accurate bass response and punchy mids. The NYT Bass Mini Humbucker in the bridge position captures the bright overtones, allowing you to cut through the mix very effectively, helping you to create a percussive and rhythmic sound for the rest of the band to lock in with. The 3-Way selector switch pickup selector switch offers the player to select either each pickup individually or both together, which when paired with the responsive independent volume and tone controls offers a really versatile set of sounds.
