If you love your music louder than Hell, Epiphone's Nikki Sixx Blackbird electric bass guitar is the axe for you. Together, Epiphone’s design team and Mötley Crüe’s Nikki Sixx re-imagined the 1963 classic from a rock and roll stand-by into a dark bird of the future.
The Blackbird features a Mah body and a 34” scale bolt-on hard Maple neck with a Rosewood fretboard with Pearloid Iron Cross inlays and a 1.50” nut radius. The body is finished in fabulous Pitch Black (PB) satin.
The Blackbird’s foundation-shaking tone comes from 2 DeepSixx humbucker pickups which give the bass a thunderous output, especially since they are wired direct and have an on/off toggle as their only control. There's no volume knob! This Blackbird is either full on or turned off. Another innovative feature is the Opti-Grab device, which lets you solidly anchor your hand while picking at the bridge to get that hard drive. The pickguard also features a unique cross over-lay with a classic Thunderbird logo.
The Nikki Sixx Blackbird features all-metal black hardware, black premium die-cast 17:1 machine heads, and an Epiphone classic 3 point adjustable tailpiece, the very same that Nikki plays on stage.

- Designed with Nikki Sixx
- 3-point adjustable tailpiece with Opti-Grab
