This was the bass of choice for a generation of UK players — Chas Chandler of the Animals, Paul Samwell-Smith of the Yardbirds — and the timing and features here point to a bass most likely brought into the UK through Epiphone's period distributor, Rosetti, rather than sold direct in the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSingle large humbucking pickup, volume and tone controls, two-way bass\/baritone switch. All original as far as we can tell, right down to the tortoiseshell-style pickguard. Sunburst finish with honest, consistent wear for a bass pushing sixty years old — no major repairs in its lifetime, and the frets are still in good shape. Currently set up with 45-90 flatwounds, which suits this bass down to the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeautiful deep subby wooden tone with full range engaged via the push button - switching between tenor\/ baritone mode. Available to demo in-store, this bass must be played to be appreciated. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSold without the original hard case, gig bag included. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Epiphone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58323559383414,"sku":null,"price":3499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/8174\/3178\/files\/IMG_20260723_110449242.jpg?v=1784802484","url":"https:\/\/folkiesmusic.co.uk\/products\/epiphone-rivoli-hollow-body-bass-sunburst-usa-circa-1964","provider":"folkiesmusic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
