The most classic vintage model of all the amp heads offered by EBS, the Classic 500 has a warm and round saturation, while maintaining great versatility thanks to its advanced equalization.
The vintage without its flaws. A sober design, a vinyl-covered frame and a Tolex-style grille with a logo over it: no doubt, we have to make a clearly typed vintage amplifier. Thanks to his know-how and his experience in the design of amps and bass effects, EBS has managed to develop an incredibly musical 100% transistor amp head. Where the majority of transistor amps deliver a cold sound and too precise, the Classic 500 is able to produce both a warm and rich sound that is reminiscent of the best vintage amps, a more modern and transparent sound .
Simple and (doubly) effective. The Classic 500 has been designed to be simple to handle: exit the amps three or four channels with twenty potentiometers on the front, the Classic 500 goes to the basics by offering a single channel, a gain, saturation and volume adjustment. Equalization, however, has the particularity of offering two semi-parametric midrange settings (high and low) that can be used to dig or boost specific frequencies. A real plus to sculpt your sound! Like other EBS heads, the Classic 500 features the Character filter, which processes your sound upstream of all other settings, adding bass and treble while gently digging midrange.
A very versatile head. Although clearly vintage stamped because of its design and its name, the Classic 500 is nonetheless a very versatile amplifier. Thanks to its gain potentiometer that emulates the heat and compression of a tube amp with great accuracy, the Classic 500 is able to address both the most vintage styles that require a warm sound, as well as more current styles. . Thanks to its 2 Speakon outputs of 4 ohms and its ability to operate up to 2 ohms minimum, you can connect one or two speakers of 4 ohms, or a cabinet of 4 ohms and two of 8 ohms. You'll understand, this powerful and versatile amp head is perfect for any bassist looking for a vintage or modern sound, without suffering the many disadvantages that the tube amps in terms of maintenance and fragility. All with quality EBS, of course!
