Epiphone Newport Bass [Product Demo]

[@TheBassfresh]

I bought one in the blue/green color 7.4 lbs nearby at 10% discount, the gig bag that fits perfectly btw is a Gator Jazzmaster 4G @79$ nice bag. Swapped the strings for d'addario rounds xl165 long scale, the ss dont fit due to the tailpiece, and medium scale are hard to find unless you get them through the mail. All I did was tighten up the tuners w/ a small adjustable wrench and a small phillips on the end of the key...not sloppy anymore and work flawlessly. The bridge was easy to intonate, use the flathead slots in back instead of the allen in the front. The bass is the best "gibson" bass I've owned/played and my 1st was in 1970, sounds more like an EB3 than the new sg bass, love the blend control...and the balance. Tuning it down 1/2 step for my power trio project.

That bass has a strange electric upright tone when in the neck position.
