Product Description

The EB is a modern bass design, only recently appearing in Gibson's illustrious catalogue. Taking inspiration from Tobias Basses, a brand that Gibson acquired in the early 90s, this gorgeous offset instrument is aimed primarily at bassists looking for cutting-edge tones and optimal playability.

Construction

The body of the EB bass is formed of Swamp Ash, a lightweight wood that ensures a balanced and full-bodied tone with plenty of mid-range. Joined with a bright-sounding Maple neck, this bass has a clear and vibrant sound, delivering lots of clarity and definition even when playing finger-style.

Adorned with a Rosewood fretboard, the neck feels smooth under the fingers, and the rounded profile is extremely comfortable for your fretting hand. Featuring cryogenically-treated frets, this pioneering process offers better longevity, with the frets less susceptible to wear or rust.

Electronics and Hardware

Sporting a pair of powerful humbuckers, this bass is suitable for a number of styles. Capable of dishing out thick and punchy tones, this bass can be easily tamed thanks to its push/pull coil split functions on each of the Volume controls.

Letting you attain old-school single-coil sounds, the amount of tonal versatility offered by this bass is incredible, especially at its modest price. The Master Tone knob can roll off any overbearing presence, meaning you have a whole palette of bass sounds at your disposal.

The Full Contact BABICZ bridge is a fantastic hardware appointment, transferring all of the string vibrations straight into the body. This makes sure that all of the perks of the Swamp Ash are heard, and with ultra-smooth saddles, this bridge is also very comfortable to play and rest your right hand on.
