General
Epiphone's very own Embassy bass is back! Originally released in 1963 to compete with the Thunderbird, this modernised love-note comes refined by features fit to shape a stubborn, ground-shaking character of its very own. So, the machine heads have been given a petulant 2-by-2 configuration mounted to a classic Epiphone headstock, and while the top horn of the body has also grown a bit since the original '60s version, giving this double-cut model a nicely asymmetrical finished, the Tune-O-Matic bridge and Claw tailpiece are as authentic as it gets.
The Embassy Bass: Medium C-Neck & ProBucker Bass 760 Pickups
The mahogany neck has been glued into the matching mahogany body to ensure optimum resonance and a warm foundation sound with a clear mid-range and nice, rounded trebles. The neck has also been finished with a medium C-profile for a smooth feel that sits snug in the fret hand. Meanwhile, the Embassy is home to a pair of double-coiled passive ProBucker Bass 760 pickups able to shape flexible vintage-edged tone that can be tweaked to taste using no-fuss volume and tone controls before being perfectly mixed with the blend pot.
