Epiphone Viola, made in China 2019, vintage sunburst. This is a really fun little bass. Taking it's queues from the classic 1960s Hofner Violin Bass, or 'Beatle Bass', it's got a pair of mini-humbuckers and a hollow maple body. It's lightweight, lively in the hands and easy to get around on. The short 30.5" scale means it's a little slinkier and friendlier on the fingers than a regular full length bass, plus it contributes to the thumpy, warm tone. Plugged in, you get a warm, rounded, friendly thump, perfect for jazz or folk stuff, plus it pulls that early Beatles tone convincingly. The Beatle Bass is a really fun design and a welcome addition to a player's collection, and this one is surprisingly well executed... fun!
