    Epiphone Jack Casady Signature Bass Ebony
    Great Epiphone bass that's hard to find!
    Comes with the Epiphone case made for this model.
    The bass is very clean except for some buckle rash on the back and a cracked pickup ring. Neither of which affect the playability or sound of the bass.
    Professionally set up and ready to play out of the box!
    I will include Epiphone's description below.
    The bass is used and shows signs of it including nicks, dings, dents, and scrapes.
    Please feel free to ask if you have any questions!
    Deep, articulate tone and classic semi-hollowbody style are the hallmarks of the Epiphone Jack Casady Bass. The body, center block, set neck, and fretboard conspire to create a sweet-playing bass you won't want to put down. Has a single low-impedance JCB-1 humbucker with VariTone control, as well as traditional volume and tone knobs. Pearloid trapezoid fingerboard inlays, body binding and Jack's signature across the headstock set it apart.
    Jack Casady, electric rock bass player extraordinaire, worked closely with Gibson and Epiphone to create this tasty signature model. It's a long-scale, hollowbody electric bass constructed loosely around his vintage 1972 Gibson Les Paul Signature bass, discovered in a New York instrument shop in the mid '80s. Starting from there, Jack spent a lot of energy working with a pickup designer from Epiphone putting together a new humbucker to reside in his signature model. Together they nailed down a passive pickup and control section that delivered tone so pure and natural it'll give you goose bumps. The pickup is a special low-impedance model (the JCB-1), which produces a bass sound high impedance pickups and active electronics can't match.
    The controls—a volume, tone, and versatile VariTone knob—produce enough variation for any situation. The bass has a unique and high-quality transformer with a 3-way impedance selector which eliminates the need for active circuitry while giving the low-impedance signal from the pickup a boost. The pickup impedance selector (VariTone) allows for sounds from clear and clean with acoustic vibe to deep, round and growling rock authority.
    The Jack Casady bass body construction is unique, too. It's not a true semi-hollow or hollow body, but a hybrid that combines the best from both designs. Under the bridge is a center block that adds sustain and helps to fight feedback. This construction allows the top to vibrate freely, giving the bass guitar a more natural tone.
    The Epiphone Jack Casady Bass is as unique as Jack, with a vibe, tone and innovative features all its own. Features
