General

EBS return to their roots with the EBS 802 High Dynamics Linear Bass Amp. Since this high-grade, purely professional and 19" rack-mountable bass amp is a 100% Swedish brainchild, it comes fitted with the now renowned EBS linear transistor technology.

The 802 for the Contemporary Bassist

The 802 is loaded with one of the most versatile preamplifiers found in any EBS amp to date. Here, you get sweepable mids with low-mid and high-mid controls as well as bass and treble. This not only opens up an expanse of possible tone but will easily handle the range needed to amplify a 5 or 6-string bass.

The Connect

Around the back of the EBS 802 sit two balanced XLR outputs for optimal signal transfer; post and pre EQ; an FX loop; tuner output and line out. If you get your hands on the EBS RM-4 (sold separately) that couples with this amp, you get remote control over mute, drive, character filers and EQ bypass. In short, this pro-level amp head was reared to take on both the stage and the studio.
