Reissue of the Epiphone Newport Bass from the Sixties

With the Epiphone Newport Bass Cherry, Epiphone revives the rare Newport Student Bass, which made its debut in 1961, as part of the Original Collection. Based on the historic specifications, the practical four-string naturally comes in a set-neck design with a short 30.5" scale length, which not only contributes to the drizzling playing characteristics but also significantly supports the rich vintage tone. At the bass amp, Epiphone Bass Sidewinder and TB Pro pickups deliver amazingly flexible tones whose traditional character is always apparent. Of course, Epiphone completes the Newport Bass with authentic add-on parts in accurate vintage style.
