The Epiphone Embassy earns every letter of its name, standing proudly as a tribute to the 1963 original. And it's better than ever, boasting improved balance and looks with a 2-per-side headstock and an extended upper horn. It's also equipped with ProBucker 760 bass pickups that replicate the original Gibson mid-1960s Thunderbird pickups, as well as cool original barrel-style knobs for volume, tone, and blend. With its solid mahogany body, mahogany neck, and Indian laurel fingerboard, this bass has a rich, thumpy, warm low end and smooth playability.
