Epiphone Allen Woody Rumblekat | 2015 Short Scale Bass

2015 Epiphone Allen Woody Rumblekat short scale bass. Chambered mahogany body with 5-ply maple top. Mahogany set neck. Rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays. 30" scale. 20 frets. Dual NYT mini humbuckers. Gold hardware. 3.3kg. Original hard shell case included.
 
The Rumblekat was designed in collaboration with the late Allman Brothers and Gov't Mule bassist. It combines Woody's favourite features: a chambered body for resonance, mini humbuckers for focused punch, and a 30" short scale for easy playability. The single-cutaway archtop design has no f-holes, giving it a unique semi-hollow feel. Controls are mounted on a tortoiseshell plate with individual volume for each pickup and a master tone.
