Description

Introducing the Epiphone Newport Bass, a masterpiece of craftsmanship and innovation that pays homage to its rare vintage predecessor while catering to the demands of modern bassists. Originally unveiled in 1961, the all-original design of the Newport Bass captivated musicians with its unique features and unparalleled sonic capabilities. Now, Epiphone proudly presents a revitalised version of this iconic instrument, incorporating refinements that meet the needs of today's discerning musicians.

At the core of the Newport Bass is its thoughtfully designed construction, ensuring optimal playability and comfort. The 30.5" scale length strikes the perfect balance between tension and resonance, offering a responsive feel that suits bassists of all hand sizes. Coupled with the comfortable Medium C profile, this bass invites players to explore their full potential, effortlessly manoeuvring across its expansive range.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the symmetrical double-cutaway mahogany body guarantees unrestricted access to every fret, empowering bassists to unleash their creativity and explore new sonic territories with ease. The robust tonal foundation provided by the mahogany body resonates with warmth, depth, and sustain, offering a rich canvas for sonic exploration.

The Newport Bass boasts an impressive sonic arsenal, thanks to its versatile pickup configuration. Equipped with the Bass Sidewinder neck pickup, this instrument delivers deep, resonant tones that thump with authority and power. Whether you're laying down a thunderous bassline or creating a lush, melodic foundation, the Bass Sidewinder captures every nuance with precision and fidelity. Complementing this neck pickup is the TB PRO in the bridge position, which injects brightness and clarity into your sound, adding definition and articulation to your playing. These two pickups work harmoniously together, offering a wide range of tonal possibilities to suit your musical preferences.

To further tailor your sound, the Newport Bass is outfitted with intuitive controls. The master volume and tone controls allow you to shape and sculpt your tone to perfection, providing a seamless integration of your instrument within any musical context. The blend knob enables precise tonal balancing between the two pickups, allowing you to find the ideal sweet spot that complements your playing style and enhances your sonic expression.

Designed for maximum performance and reliability, the Newport Bass features a fingerboard made from luxurious laurel wood, known for its smooth feel and enhanced durability. With 20 Medium Jumbo frets, this bass provides excellent playability and facilitates effortless navigation across the fretboard, accommodating a wide range of playing techniques and musical genres.

Completing this exceptional instrument is a bridge and tailpiece combination that pays homage to the heritage of classic bass design. The Historic Bass Tune-O-Matic bridge ensures optimal intonation, sustain, and string resonance, guaranteeing impeccable tuning stability and tone transfer. The Historic Claw tailpiece adds a touch of elegance while enhancing the overall resonance and sustain of the instrument.

In summary, the Epiphone Newport Bass combines the timeless appeal of a vintage classic with modern refinements, creating an instrument that excels in both form and function. Whether you're a seasoned professional or an aspiring bassist, this exceptional instrument will ignite your musical journey, empowering you to explore new sonic horizons, and unleash your full creative potential. Immerse yourself in the legacy of the Newport Bass and experience the epitome of craftsmanship, versatility, and tonal excellence.
