Since there is no EBS Club on here yet, I decided that I would start one. So if you use EBS amplifiers, post them here. I'll start:

I use an EBS HD350 head with a Neo-Pro 4x10 cab.

P.S. The effects pedals don't qualify you for club membership; you have to have an amp (head, cab, and/or combo), but feel free to post them with your amps if you have some.

And I'll be member number 2! :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: ;)
I have the slightly unconventional rackmount preamp EBS 1v.2 and a Labgruppen PA power-amp. Both swedish (but that is NOT was the reason I bought them), both very well designed and built, both all solid state. :) No pics today...
I bought the EBS 1v.2 used in a music store 10 years ago, and it has served me perfectly ever since. Super low noise, nice compressor and cross over, lots of outputs for DI etc. The odd thing is the eq, which takes some time to get used to.
Replaced input jack a couple of years ago - but it turned out it was the Peavey "life time warranty" instrument cable that was shot. :mad:
Also have the EBS Octa Bass - brilliant thing! :D

I'd like to see EBS come out with another rackmount preamp soon. That would spark me. If they do that, I have a nice plan:

EBS Preamp
Tech 21 Sansamp RBI Preamp
Ampeg Preamp (Probably SCT-Pro or something along those lines)
Fender Tube Preamp
all preamps rackmounted in one rack case
and a Power Amp of some sort with plenty of power in another rack case.

Then I'll hook up the preamp I want to use for that certain gig.

I'd always have something that'll fit and have plenty of different options. Of course, I'd always use my EBS cab, cause it's great. I want to get another EBS 4x10, but not the Neo. The regular one, just for the slight difference in sound between the two.

Regarding the discontinued preamps; some months ago, I spoke with the guy who designed the EBS 1. He told me that the company stopped making the preamps because they did not any longer make the power amps... :confused:
Sounds strange, but makes perfect sence when you think about it. With the current supply of cheap far east power amps, it seems unlikely there will be another preamp from EBS in the foreseeable future. :(

BTW, I wrote about the 410 and NEO 212 cabs in a different thread. I think those cabs were very disapponting.

Son of Bovril, I haven't played the regular Pro Line 4x10, so I can't tell you. Sorry. I do want to buy one though. If I do, I'll let you know how they sound compared to each other.

Sweet, thanx Saxnbass

would love to hear your opinion on the 410 you have sometime in another thread (don't wanna hijack your club thread :D) if you have the time to put something together that is...

I don't think I qualify for the club yet, I only own a Microbass II?
