I am wondering if the bridge has a individual string adjustment on the Epic bass.

Has anyone seen the bridge?
I ain't seen the bridge. . .
Where's that confounded bridge?
 
Sorry couldn't resist.
 
I am rather certain that the bridge that you speak of has individual intonation adjustments for each string.
As far as height adjustment, there are just two screws on the 'top' and 'bottom'.

I recently disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled an Epic Bridge. I happened to have this photo handy from another online forum.

There are right and left height screws for the bridge as a whole, and individual intonation adjustment screws per-string. The slots and saddles follow the radius of the fingerboard, to it sets up pretty easily.
