The Epiphone Thunderbird IV Bass has long been a favorite of rock and metal players thanks to its bold reverse-body design and powerful, aggressive sound. Outfitted with TB Plus humbucking pickups, it delivers massive low end and earth-shaking growl, giving you commanding tone every time you hit the stage.

Built with a solid mahogany body, a maple neck, and a pau ferro fingerboard, the Thunderbird IV offers classic tonewood character—warm, rich, and versatile enough for a wide range of styles. It captures the unmistakable attitude and quality feel of its Gibson predecessor, making it an exceptional choice for players seeking premium performance at an accessible price.

A sound big enough to fill any stage

Featuring two ceramic TB-Plus pickups which translate the solid mahogany body’s natural resonance into a thunderous bass tone with excellent definition. These pickups are equipped with a three-way selector switch, neck and bridge volume controls and a master tone control, allowing you to sculpt the voicing of the bass so you can find your ideal sound.

Experience a supreme playing feel

The body of the Thunderbird IV is constructed of mahogany wings and a solid, bolt-on hard maple neck which guarantees amazing sustain and tone, finished with a beautiful sunburst wrap. The maple neck will feel fantastic in your hands and you’ll be able to manoeuvre it easily, especially thanks to the smooth pau ferro fretboard. Attached to the fretboard are the 20 medium jumbo nickel/silver alloy frets, which will allow for pinpoint intonation – so you can find the right note at the right time, every time.

Vintage Epiphone design that’s built to last

This instrument also features a three point fully adjustable bridge. This allows the string height to be adjusted in all directions (front, back and side-to-side, providing supreme control over the bass’s action and intonation. This setup allows the bass to work with a variety of string types and gauges, as well as holding your strings in tune for longer. The distinctive look of the Thunderbird bass is added to with black hardware, a vintage-style white pickguard and classic Thunderbird logo.
