Where Vintage Style Meets Modern Playability
The EBVI-VS Viola Bass brings vintage inspiration to life with bold tone and unmistakable 60s style. Modeled after iconic violin-style basses, the Epiphone EBVI-VS Viola Bass blends retro design with modern craftsmanship.
This short-scale bass features a beautiful Vintage Sunburst finish and hollowbody build. The set mahogany neck and maple top/back/sides create a strong yet lightweight instrument. It feels comfortable while delivering deep, woody tone.
Designed for Players Who Crave Retro Sound
Epiphone didn’t just chase style-they ensured serious substance. The mini humbucking pickups deliver warm, rich tone. Whether you use flatwounds or standard strings, the EBVI-VS responds with vintage thump and clarity.
It’s the perfect tool for players chasing that 60s bass feel. From smooth walking lines to thick rhythmic pulses, this bass makes your sound shine with character.
Comfortable Scale, Big Sound
Thanks to its 30.5″ short scale, the Viola Bass gives you fat lows and easy playability. Guitarists will appreciate the familiar feel. Bassists will love the punchy, round tones that cut through without being harsh.
This scale also reduces tension on the strings, making it ideal for expressive and melodic playing. The instrument feels compact, yet powerful and inspiring.
Perfect for a Variety of Genres
This bass thrives in classic rock, British pop, folk-rock, country, and blues settings. Its tones evoke the golden age of recording. But its modern reliability ensures it performs night after night without fail.
Why the Viola Bass Belongs in Your Collection
The Epiphone EBVI-VS Viola Bass isn’t just a visual throwback-it’s a sonic statement. It’s rich, responsive, and refined. Whether on stage or in the studio, this bass adds vintage charm and modern versatility to any setup.
“The Viola Bass isn’t just cool-looking—it has a voice of its own. It grooves, it glides, and it always finds a way to fit in the mix without overpowering it.“
