A Distinctive, Great-playing Bass from Epiphone!
The Epiphone Thunderbird IV bass provides you with tone that lives up to its name! It's distinctive alder body and fast 34"-scale neck give the Thunderbird IV a great combination of striking looks and unbeatable playability. Two well-placed pickups put out plenty of volume, plus tonality that ranges from thick to punchy. Though it features a substantial body shape, this bass is lightweight and very comfortable for holding down the bottom end onstage. You'll get a ton of tone when you pick up the thunderous Epiphone Thunderbird IV!

Epiphone Thunderbird IV Bass at a Glance:
  • A history of distinctive quality
  • Great tone

A history of distinctive quality
Nearly four decades ago, the Thunderbird bass design was introduced by Gibson. Bassists could now enjoy some distinctively shaped instruments and get their moment in the spotlight. It doesn't hurt that the Epiphone Thunderbird IV sounds amazing! Much thought went into the design of this bass, including a thicker middle/thinner wing alder body construction for a substantial yet lightweight playing experience.

Great tone
The pickup configuration on the Epiphone Thunderbird IV is unique. Rather than placing a pickup near the neck, which could muddy up the tone and reduce its effectiveness, Epiphone gives the bass essentially middle and bridge pickups. This lets you dial in everything from growling tones to funky punch. Each pickup gets its own volume control, along with a single tone knob for fine-tweaking.

Epiphone Thunderbird Bass Features:
  • Color: Vintage Sunburst
  • Body: Alder
  • Neck: Maple

  • Inlays: Dot
  • Scale: 34"
  • Width at nut: 1.73"

The Epiphone Thunderbird IV bass gives you a distinctive, great-sounding playing experience!

Sweetwater Expert Advice
 
  "This bass is flat out AMAZING! I first saw the low price and of course had some reservations. I now have one and believe me, the tone is thick, cuts through, and records beautifully! As an owner of eight basses, including this Thunderbird IV, it's fast becoming my go-to!! Worth every penny!!"
