A vintage-style bass without the vintage price tag!

Epiphone's Viola Bass harkens back to the glory days of the British Invasion with modern touches that distinguish it from the similarly shaped vintage model. The laminated maple body is topped with a flame maple top with a rosewood-topped set maple neck rounding out the basic feature set. The Viola Bass boasts a pair of mini humbuckers to handle the amplification with chrome hardware accents. Tap into the classic warm bass sound of a famous group of lads from Liverpool with the ultra-affordable Viola Bass!

Epiphone Viola Bass at a Glance:
  • Short scale
  • Classic sound

Short scale
The Viola Bass has a 30.5" scale length making it a great bass for smaller players or beginners. Players who are accustomed to long-scale basses can benefit from the ease of getting around on the shorter neck. The lightweight body is also a plus, making the Viola Bass perfect for long stage gigs.

Classic sound
The sound of the Viola Bass is very much like the sound we've heard on some of the most famous recordings of all time. These tones are provided by a pair of mini humbuckers similar to those on the original.

Epiphone Viola Bass Features:
  • Pickups - NYR & NYT Mini Humbuckers
  • Hardware - Chrome
  • Scale - 30.5"
  • Nut Width: - 1.65"
  • Neck: Set, Maple
  • Fingerboard/Inlay: Rosewood w/dots
  • Body Material: Maple
  • Flame Maple Top
  • Finishes: Vintage Sunburst

Our Customers Say...

“My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.”
