Epiphone

Epiphone presents the EB-3 SG Bass, a stunning recreation of the iconic bass that shaped the sound of rock. This modern SG Bass has the tone and feel of the original without the vintage price tag. The EB-3 SG Bass quickly became one of the most distinctive basses after its introduction, with rock legends like Bill Wyman of The Rolling Stones, Jack Bruce of Cream, and The Who's John Entwistle making history on SG-style basses.

Mahogany Body and Neck Provide Exceptional Sustain

The EB-3 SG Bass has a mahogany body and neck, which provide wonderfully warm bass response and exceptional sustain. The mahogany construction captures the organic and vintage-sounding tone suitable for rock and a variety of other musical styles.

Powerful Pickups Recreate Iconic SG Bass Sound

The EB-3 SG Bass features a Sidewinder humbucking pickup in the neck position and an NYT Bass mini-humbucker at the bridge. These pickups are designed to authentically recreate the iconic sound of the original SG basses from the '60s that shaped rock music.

Longer Scale Length Adds Tonal Depth

With its 34" scale length, the EB-3 SG Bass has a longer scale than a standard bass for added tonal depth and fuller low end. The longer scale provides tighter, more focused lows and a piano-like quality to the midrange.

Other Features

The EB-3 SG Bass also features an adjustable bridge with saddles for precise intonation, vintage-style tuners, and a pickguard with the classic "Epiphone" and "EB-3" logos.
