If you’re a bassist heading to a session and can only bring one bass, you’d bring the one that can handle any sound and tackle any groove. That exact instrument is what this EBX was built on.
Developed using feedback from top session players, the classic 1980s bass sampled for this EBX is the pure definition of a player’s pick. With standout features like the iconic P/J-style pickup configuration adding to its rare balance of low-end punch, midrange body and overall definition, it’s the epitome of tonal versatility that can effortlessly adapt to virtually any style, song or playing situation. Whether laying down a solid foundation in a stripped-back arrangement or cutting through a dense mix, it delivers the kind of dependable performance that has made it a studio favorite for decades. Captured with both finger and pick playing styles, each with palm mute and slap articulations included, this is an expansion you can use beyond the scope of just a sound or a genre – it’s a workhorse.
In addition to the instrument, it includes 20 mix-ready presets showcasing a broad palette of go-to tones covering anything from tight, bright and clean to dark, muffled and saturated. Paired with the accompanying MIDI, which can be customized infinitely to suit your needs, this is a workhorse EBX built to handle virtually any song, style or production scenario.
Allround for all-around great bass. It doesn’t have to be harder than that. Here’s a proper session gem.
