EBS FAFNER II - FIVE OUT OF FIVE IN BASS GUITAR MAGAZINE REVIEW!
First review of the EBS Fafner II in an international publication came out great - five out of five in British premier bass publication Bass Guitar Magazine in their April issue (on sale now)!
 Here's some quotes:
"The Fafner II and NeoLine 410 represent one of the best and most versatile rigs available. Feature-packed amp and compact-size cabinet - just what the pro bassist needs!"
"There's a distinct quality you get when playing through this rig, almost as if you're listening to your bass through powerful studio monitors after an experienced engineer has added just the right EQ".
"Cranking up the volume to stage levels and adding in the drive really reveals this amp's attitude. The fact that it comes with its own set of earplugs gives you some idea of what this rig is capable of!"
"Though at first glance the Fafner II seems rather complicated, in use it's amazingly intuitive, with everything laid out in a clear and efficient way. An amp with such prominent distortion and overdrive features will, of course, appeal to rock and metal players, but this is one rig that has the power and versatility to work in any situation".
"With products as strong as these and a new UK distributor (Sound Technology), the future looks good for EBS, and deservedly so."

EBS Pedals reviewed with guitar in UK magazine Guitarist
 Guitarist magazine review six of EBS Black Label Pedals in their March Issue (339). For the second time, the EBS TremoLo recieves and "Editor's Award" in a guitar magazine, and all the other five tested pedals did pretty good too! Here's some quotes from the test:
EBS DPhaser "From classic seventies phase sounds reminiscent of the legendary orange MXR boxes, through deeper eight-stage phasing, to swooshing sounds verging on flanging courtesy of the wide settings 18-stage phasing with differential modulation, the DPhaser covers a lot of ground, but always sounds classy, 4/5".
EBS MetalDrive "Not just for metal, this is way more versatile than a standard overdrive/distortion pedal, 4/5".
EBS MultiComp "Quality compression in three subtly different flavours makes the MultiComp a versatile pedalboard asset, 4/5".
EBS OctaBass "Blending your sound is very straightforward, as there's a knob each for your normal sound and the low octave. The mid setting gives you a classic octave down effect but, if you want a weightier sound, low provides a really fat bottom end. The high setting offers a more effected sound that's reminiscent of a synth bass playing in unison, 3.5/5".
EBS Tremolo "One of the finest and most versatile compact tremolo pedals available today, 4.5/5". Guitarist Choice Award.
EBS BassIQ "Whether you play guitar or bass, this pedal has most certainly got the funk", 4/5.
The magazine is available in UK and some other European countries. Buy it to get the full story!

 The EBS Session 60 has been incredibly well recieved and is a great success so far! Here's some feedback...

TopGuitar magazine announces that the EBS Classic Session 60 bass combo received the “Top Gear” editors' award for May. Here's some excerpts from the review:
 “Concerning a massive amount of low end, which until now has been available only from larger cabinets, the possibility of positioning the combo at 45 degrees becomes priceless.”
“EBS Classic Session 60 offers much more than one would expect from its look. Small and handy, with an impressive low end response and an attractive pricing, this combo deserves a podium in its class.”
"One of the best bass combos under 1000 Euro - simply brilliant" *
Markus Vogler, Beyer's Music Store, Germany
* The Session 60 lists around 300 Euro.
"...a well-built, affordable, and versatile bass combo.
Highly recommended."

EBS Announcement: Fafner II ready for a summer 2010 release!
The time has come to introduce the Fafner II. This new 2-channel ’flagship’ from EBS is packed with great and useful features that makes this amp stand out from the rest. The Fafner II is second to none!
Two channels
EBS Fafner II use a two channel preamp that can be run in series or parallel mode. Since you can switch between the channels or blend them together it open up a lot of possibilities to shape your sound.
Footswitch control
Use a remote footswitch control (EBS RM-4) to switch between the channels, bypass filters, kick in the character filters or mute the rig while tuning.
Two separate XLR-outputs
A very rare feature on the Fafner II amp is the two separate balanced XLR-outputs – one pre and one post EQ. This creates the opportunity to blend a clean signal with a processed straight from the amp, or to use a clean signal to front of house and your own sound in the monitors on stage. Not to speak about the extended options it will give in a recording situation!
Individual effect loops
Individual effect loops for each channel, and a common loop provide maximum flexibility when hooking up your effects. For example, you can connect a noise gate to the drive channel, without affecting the clean channel, while you can use a chorus on the clean channel, without affect the drive channel.
EBS Fafner II is designed, developed and built in Sweden. EBS Fafner II is now in production and is estimated to start shipping sometime in the summer of 2010.

The EBS Classic T90 All-Tube bass amp is developed by EBS and experts with more than 20 years experience from building exclusive tube amps for hi-fi and guitar. The result is a hand-built tube amp with special designed transformers and selected and matched tubes (2x 7025 in the pre amp, 2x 6550 in the power amp).

EBS Stanley Clarke Signature Wah Wah - first review!
First review has arrived, and it is great! Only available in Swedish at this point, but soon to be translated.
Check out the review in Swedish here.
New Black Label Pedal - EBS Metal Drive!
The EBS MetalDrive is the eighth pedal in the EBS Black Label series. The idea behind the pedal was born after modifying a MultiDrive pedal for bass player John Moyer of Disturbed, who needed a pedal for bass that delivered not only overdrive but pure metal distortion that could match Disturbeds famed heavy guitar riffs. So, EBS techs took on the commission to create the meanest and heaviest distortion pedal ever made for bass, and came up with the EBS MetalDrive!
The pedal will start shipping at the end of June 2009.
EBS Stanley Clarke Signature Wah Wah - ready for shipping!
First deliveries of the EBS Stanley Clarke Signature Wah-Wah presented at the Winter NAMM 2009 will take place at the beginning of June.
