Tone for pros

For that classic 1960 vintage tone, the Epiphone Embassy is equipped with a pair of ProBucker Bass Pickups. They're crafted in a similar fashion to the renowned ProBucker TM. So you can expect all its warmth and richness to ripple through the mix with ease. Not to mention the immense power that these pickups hold, ideal for any live environment. From rumbling riffs to funky basslines - the versatility of these pickups can handle just about anything you throw at them. And they'll decorate your playing with that classic touch of signature Epiphone quality.

A neck of dazzling possibilities

Setting this bass apart from others out there is the robust mahogany neck. It offers the utmost strength and durability that is hard to replicate with any other wood. Now you have the chance to deliver the performance you've always wanted. Don't hold back. The neck can take any ferocious playing. As can the Indian laurel fretboard. It is similar to rosewood in its practical and tonal qualities, and this is needed for the most frequently attacked part of your bass. Its ability to soften any piercing frequencies gives a stunning, well-rounded sound.

The laurel fretboard also boasts a pristine smooth finish that lends itself to incredible playability, meaning you can slide and fret as if your fingers are floating on air. Thanks to such a gorgeous fretboard you can be sure to project an even tone that encompasses a range of possibilities. Experience the rumble of lower frequencies and glistening definition of the high end. Whether you're in the studio or an epic gig, the Epiphone Embassy promises you a jaw-dropping, wall-trembling sound.

Retro inspiration

First introduced in 1963, the original Epiphone Embassy bass became a popular choice amongst players due to its unique solid body qualities. Which is why Epiphone have maintained their historic values in this stunning model, taking its inspiration from the original while adding a few modern enhancements for today's player. Its solid mahogany body now features a longer upper horn, which not only offers provides more comfort during performance, but also improves the overall balance of the bass. And with the iconic double-cutaway shape for effortless fret access, the Embassy injects true vintage quality into the hands of the modern player.
