Description
The Epiphone Jack Casady Fretless Bass honors the sound and playing style of Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jack Casady, bassist for the bands Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna. For years, Casady experimented with finding an electric bass that captured the rich tone and response of an acoustic bass, and the Epiphone Jack Casady Bass, designed with Casady's input, achieves this blend. Now, bassists seeking a fretless option can experience this legendary sound for themselves with the Jack Casady Fretless Bass in Aged Royal Tan.
The foundation of the Jack Casady Fretless Bass is a layered maple body with a single-ply cream binding on the top and back, and an Aged Royal Tan finish that speaks to the vintage lineage of this instrument. A comfortable C-shaped mahogany neck provides a familiar playing experience for fretted bass players transitioning to fretless, and is topped with a laurel fingerboard with a 34" scale length.
The Jack Casady Fretless Bass eliminates frets entirely, allowing bassists to achieve a smooth, singing tone and explore microtonal intervals not possible on fretted instruments. This design demands a skilled touch but opens doors for a unique and expressive playing style.
A single Casady-designed JCB-1 low-impedance humbucker makes up the pickup selection for this fretless bass. This pickup delivers a powerful, punchy sound that's paired with the three-position Vari-Tone control, allowing selection from classic tones, brighter high-end sounds, and even an impedance switch for a wider range of tonal possibilities. In addition, a Master Volume and Tone are found just below the pickup.
Classic hardware appointments include a three-point adjustable bridge for precise intonation control and die-cast clover button tuners that offer smooth tuning action and a touch of old-school cool.
The Jack Casady Fretless Bass comes with a premium gig bag.
