Design Heritage and Playability: The Epiphone EONB4-SY Newport Bass in Sunset Yellow revives the classic 1961 design with modern refinements. Its 30.5” scale length and Medium C profile provide a comfortable playing experience for a wide range of hand sizes. The symmetrical double-cutaway body ensures excellent fret access, making it easy to play across the entire neck.

Tone and Versatility: Equipped with a Bass Sidewinder neck pickup and a TB PRO bridge pickup, this bass delivers a rich, deep tone and bright, clear timbres. These pickups are paired with master volume, tone controls, and a blend knob, allowing for precise tonal adjustments to suit various musical styles and preferences.

Construction and Finish: The bass features a mahogany body and a laurel fingerboard, both contributing to its warm, resonant tone. Its glossy Sunset Yellow finish adds visual appeal while highlighting the instrument’s classic design. Vintage-style hardware, including the Historic Bass Tune-O-Matic bridge and die-cast tuning machines, ensures reliability and stability.

Additional Features: A dual-action truss rod allows for easy neck adjustments, and the Newport Bass 3-ply pickguard offers both protection and a distinctive look. The bass includes 20 medium jumbo frets, a PVC nut with a width of 41.5 mm, and pearloid dot inlays, all contributing to its overall playability and aesthetic appeal.
