Paying tribute to the vintage model with an all-original design that debuted in 1961

For 150 years, Epiphone has been a leading innovator in instrument design. By leveraging its iconic past and leaning into the future, Epiphone has now set the stage for the next era of sound for present and future generations. Epiphone is proud to announce the Newport Bass and the El Capitan J-200 are now available worldwide at authorized Epiphone dealers and on www.epiphone.com.

The Epiphone Newport Bass is an all-original design that debuted in 1961. The modern Newport Bass pays tribute to that rare vintage model while offering refinements to meet the needs of today’s bass players. The 30.5” scale length and comfortable Medium C profile make it suitable for players with a wide-range of hand sizes, while the symmetrical double-cutaway body ensures excellent access to every fret. The Bass Sidewinder neck pickup provides rich, deep tones, while the TB PRO in the bridge position delivers brighter timbres. The two pickups are paired with master volume and tone controls and a blend knob so you can get precisely the tonal balance you desire. Available with a Classic Cherry finish, as well as three custom colors California Coral, Sunset Yellow, and Pacific Blue

Price: $379.00
