FOR BASS, GUITAR & BEYOND... Photo by Mike Brooks For the first time in our 20 year history, EBS has released a signature product. Who could be more suitable to honour than bass legend, Stanley Clarke? Stanley Clarke, one of the worlds’ most iconic and innovative bass players is, for the first time in his esteemed career, putting his name on a product. Being one of the most demanding players, with a distinctive tone and a clear idea of how it should sound, we all knew what to expect. A unique pedal design that satisfies his exacting standards with the most delicious wah wah effects imaginable. This unique pedal design evolved through collaborative effort with Thomas Lieber of the Spellbinder Corp. USA and Stanley Clarke, and is the first product ever that Stanley puts his name on. Also the first ever EBS product we let an artist put his name on. Enjoy!
