1967 EpiphoneRivoli – Cherry
This 1967 Epiphone Rivoli Bass in Cherry packs a huge sound for a fantastic value! This model was introduced in 1959 as a very close relative to the Gibson EB-2; in fact, they share the same body, neck, and hardware. The Rivoli was extremely popular with British bands during the 1960s, with notable players such as John Entwhistle and even Jimmy Page when he first joined the Yardbirds. This particular example is in good shape, with a vibrant Cherry finish, light playwear, and patina throughout. The original pickguard has begun to off-gas causing some mild corrosion, but it still appears stable. The original “mudbucker” pickup has such an incredible bottom end, and the choke switch adds another layer of functionality and sound. Due to the choke switch, we are unable to get an accurate pickup reading, but our tech has confirmed that the pickup works as intended and is fully functional.
