EBS Classic 500
Some amplifiers become famous overnight. Others quietly earn their reputation and become classics over time.
The EBS Classic 500 has spent over a decade powering the famous Sweden Rock Festival‘s house backline, delivering dependable performance for hundreds of artists without missing a beat.
Its fully analog design combines warm, musical tone with modern reliability and 500 watts of solid-state power, giving you the response and sound of a classic bass amp without the maintenance needs that come with tubes.
Its versatile EQ, with dual mid controls and an organic Drive, lets you move effortlessly from clean, articulate bass tones to rich, harmonically driven sounds. The balanced XLR output lets you connect directly to front-of-house or recording gear, with or without using a cabinet.
Matched with the EBS ClassicLine cabinets, the Classic 500 continues the tradition of straightforward bass amplification built to perform, night after night.
