Get Massive Tone from this Semi-acoustic Bass!

The Epiphone Jack Casady Signature Bass lets you explore new sounds and add acoustic dimension to your music. Developed and designed in partnership with Jack Casady, bass player for such groundbreaking bands as Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna, this semi-acoustic electric bass gives you a great mix of clarity, punch, and bite. A hollow cavity gives the Jack Casady Signature Bass a natural woody voice, and a special pickup with a VariTone control lets you dial in a huge range of tones. Get ready to discover tons of great new sounds with your Epiphone Jack Casady Signature Bass!

Semi-hollow maple body provides bright attack and resonant acoustic thump

Here's something we don't see every day at Sweetwater: a semi-acoustic bass. What's more, the Jack Casady Signature Bass features a maple back and sides, whose bright and naturally resonant tone complements the woody thump of its 34-inch-scale bass setup. Even without its killer electronics, all you have to do is listen to the acoustic sound of the Epiphone Jack Casady Signature Bass to know this is a very special instrument.

Specially designed pickup captures natural bass tone with extra clarity

To capture the full range of the Jack Casady Signature Bass's acoustic bass sound, Epiphone outfitted it with a specially designed low-impedance, low-output humbucker. Not only does this humbucker capture the Jack Casady Signature Bass's thump and growl beautifully, it also gives your sound the kind of clarity you don't typically get from bass pickups.

VariTone control makes dialing in the perfect bass sound as simple as turning a knob

Epiphone's VariTone circuitry is a truly unique beast, and it's part of what makes the Jack Casady Signature Bass such a fun and distinctive instrument to play. The VariTone control lets you dial in the impedance of its active humbucking pickup from around 50 ohms to around 500 ohms, which seriously affects your sound. As you turn the Jack Casady Signature Bass's VariTone control, you shift its tone from even dynamics and full tone to a punchier response with a narrower sound and plenty of bite. This gives you an absolutely massive sonic palette to play with!

Epiphone Jack Casady Signature Bass Features:

  • An original bass that gives you a wide range of amazing acoustic and electric tones
  • The signature bass of one of rock's most influential bass players
  • Semi-acoustic laminate maple body adds bite and woody quality to your sound
  • Special low-impedance, low-output humbucker captures full-bodied tone with excellent clarity and definition
  • VariTone impedance shifting circuit lets you dial in a broad spectrum of excellent bass sound

Rated 5/5

My second bass, where do I go from here? It is wonderful!

I bought this bass based on the demos. I don't have the chops of the pros playing the bass in the demos, but I have been listening to Hot Tuna a lot!
This bass is different to my Precision Bass I have e hard time relating to it as a bass.

It is so different in tone and sustain over a solid body. Not worse, just very different a very pleasing instrument and a beauty.The photos don't do it justice.

Just buy one, you won't be sorry.
