Features:

Details: Vintage Epiphone B4 Upright Bass made between 1948 and 1949. a very rare and unique instrument.

Cosmetic Condition: Very good condition overall. There is the typical signs of wear for an instrument of this age, a few chips and dings in the laminates and one larger chip in the scroll. No major issues to note of. The one unforunate missing item is the iconic Epiphone enamel tail badge that would be on the tailpiece.

Neck: Maple neck rosewood fingerboard

Body: All laminate construction

Pickups: Bass has an original vintage Ampeg Upright Bass pickup. The pickup is fully working and has a great tone, but does not include the cable.

Set Up: Bass plays alright, could use a little bit of tweaking from a professional double bass technition. As is the bass is perfect for country and bluegrass playing and is strung up with strings that look to be vintage guts.

Playability / Sound: Bass has a great sound, very big and full of warmth. Because it is strung with the gut strings the bass is perfect for country and bluegrass music.

Case: none
