Epiphone Embassy Bass Guitar

A Bass That's Worthy of the Embassy Name
The Epiphone Embassy earns every letter of its name, standing proudly as a tribute to the 1963 original. And it's better than ever, boasting improved balance and looks with a 2-per-side headstock and an extended upper horn. It's also equipped with ProBucker 760 bass pickups that replicate the original Gibson mid-1960s Thunderbird pickups, as well as cool original barrel-style knobs for volume, tone, and blend. With its solid mahogany body, mahogany neck, and Indian laurel fingerboard, this bass has a rich, thumpy, warm low end and smooth playability.



Balance is the key to life — and performance
The former Embassy reissues had extremely long horns; this model pulls the lower horn way back and slightly reduces the upper horn for better overall balance. The bassists here at Sweetwater were also quick to appreciate the symmetry of the Embassy's 2-per-side headstock. All in all, this bass has a comfortable center of gravity that makes long gigs a pleasure.






Top-notch hardware and electronics for the serious player
The ProBucker 760 bass pickups really capitalize on the resonance and rich tone of the Embassy's mahogany body. Just like the replica mid-1960s bass Tune-o-matic bridge with claw tailpiece, its ProBuckers are a nod to vintage style and performance that will stand the test of time. What's more, this modern Embassy gives you a blend knob for more tonal flexibility. At the other end of the neck, premium die-cast bass tuners anchor the strings with superior stability for consistent, reliable tuning.
