EHB Lineup
The EHB's headless construction and specially designed body enable the player to maintain a similar playing position whether seated or standing.
Its contoured, ergonomic design and chambered body make for a lightweight, well-balanced, and comfortable instrument that's excellent for long sets or practice session.
There is extra carving on the back of the body behind the lower horn for easier upper fret access.
Also, the top half of the back of the body is slanted which allows the bass to rest slight closer to the player's body for better control and a more ergonomic feel.
High-Quality, Multiscale Design
The EHB1505MS features a stunning Poplar Burl top and an African Mahogany body for a warm tone with rich resonance.
The 9-piece Panga Panga/Walnut neck provides superior note attack, tight lows and increased sustain with the Panga Panga fretboard.
Highly durable stainless steel frets accentuate tonal brightness and will not rust. Luminescent side dot inlays provide clear visibility in dark environments and the truss rod adjustment is located at the end of neck for easy access.
With its multi-scale design, the EHB1505MS creates an "alive" open tone and is comfortable to play.
The ergonomic construction coordinates with the players hand angle as it moves up and down the neck, facilitating a quick, smooth, playing action.
Versatile Electronics
The single-coil Nordstrand Big Split pickups feature split coils with hum cancelling construction for less noise.
Its tone character is a hybrid P/J style and provides a rich and strong, yet well-balanced tone, which fits well with various kinds of playing styles.
The Vari-mid 3-band EQ features a variable mid-frequency control which allows you to dial in an incredibly wide range of sounds.
There is also an EQ bypass switch for passive operation with the treble control acting as a passive tone control when the EQ is bypassed.
Premium-Grade Hardware
The MR5HS bridge is designed especially for the EHB basses and features wide intonation range.
Each bridge piece is independently and securely attached to the body for maximum vibration transfer, and the saddles are adjustable for string spacing +/-1.5mm, answering every bassist's individual string spacing demands, no matter what playing style.
Schaller S-Lock strap lock pins and a Neutrik locking jack hold the strap and cable securely, and a detachable finger ramp and a gig bag are included with each instrument.
