Boasting a rich, vintage sound and a rockin' aesthetic, the Epiphone Thunderbird 60s Bass packs in all the charm and power of the original '63 model. Featuring a thunderous pair of ProBucker pickups, this bass is perfect for musicians looking to lay down thumpy, driving riffs that growl with gut-punching presence. If you've been searching for a rock-solid bass with an old-school soul, you can't beat the Epiphone Thunderbird 60s Bass.
Starting with a solid mahogany body, the Thunderbird '60s Bass projects a robust tone with deep lows, punchy mids, and boatloads of sustain. Its neck sports a 1960s Rounded profile, giving it a nice, comfortable feel that's not too thick or thin - it sits just right for most playing styles. Bassists will also love its smooth 20-fret laurel fingerboard, vintage-accurate claw tailpiece, and open-gear tuners with historic "Clover" buttons that give it a classic look and feel.
Plug this Thunderbird into your favorite amp, and you'll be greeted by a muscular snarl that'll take you right back to the golden era of rock 'n' roll. These ProBucker pickups offer plenty of grunt and growl when playing rock and metal, but they clean up nicely when needed. If you want more warmth and sweetness, just dime the neck pickup and roll off the tone knob, and this beauty will sing with decadent lows and exceptional clarity.
Decked out with a sleek Ebony finish, a Tune-O-Matic bridge, and gold Top Hat knobs with silver inserts, the Epiphone Thunderbird 60s Bass is an excellent choice for musicians seeking raw, vintage rock 'n' roll power. Contact us today to make it yours!
