The Hard Rock EBX is an expansion for EZbass designed for use in bombastic, heavy and genuine hard rock productions where the bass has an unquestionably central role.<\/p>\n

The instrument, which has cemented its place at the pantheon of hard rock alongside iconic players like Lemmy, Cliff Burton, Roger Glover, Glenn Hughes and Phil Lynott, is nothing short of a bona fide rock star itself. With its gut-punching low end, roaring mid range and zingy but ever-so-balanced highs, it\u2019s the definition of a rock solid bass for serious hard rock songs. Add to that the comprehensive collection of presets and the MIDI that comes with this bulldozer of an EBX and you\u2019ll have what is sure to become a workhorse in your heavy rock toolbox from here on out.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for a bass that can muster anything from the piercingly clear to the most gritty, gnarly and wrecking ball-like of tones, this is it. Time to make some bass that rocks hard. Let the low end begin!<\/p>\n

THE INSTRUMENT.
An ace of basses.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Rickenbacker.* Just the name alone paints a vividly stark picture of hard rock history. Since the late \u201960s, this monumental instrument has been joined at the hip of countless iconic players and in the process become just as much of an icon itself.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen looking to capture the ultimate hard rock bass, there really wasn\u2019t much discussion as to which one to pick,\u201d comments Magnus Melkersson, EZbass lead R&D technician. \u201cThe look, the tone, the feel and the sheer stature of it \u2013 this bass literally fumes of hard rock from top to bottom.\u201d<\/p>\n

The specific model captured for this EBX is an iconic 4001 dating back to 1974. With its neck-through construction, full-wood body and unique two-pickup\/output design, the tone of this beast of a bass is as unique as its statuesque appearance.<\/p>\n

THE SOUNDS & ARTICULATIONS.<\/b>
Seeing as the Hard Rock EBX seeks to capture that distinct and piercing hard rock tone, it was sampled solely with a pick option. It does this to its fullest extent, though, and includes all the articulations, like down and upstrokes, percussive sounds and subtle ghosts notes, you need to produce strikingly expressive bass tracks.<\/p>\n
