Full Description
View Full DescriptionWhere's your head at?
Energy and passion are a must for the musician who holds this axe. The headless design allows you to physically portray your music and feed from your crowd. As well as giving a lighter weight - never feel held down - you also lose any feeling of restraint as no headstock means more space to do your thing. Your guitar will never leave your side. Thanks to the Schaller S-Lock strap lock pins and a Neutrik locking jack, your strap and cable will be securely held throughout your performance.
A natural feel is a priority for a natural performance. As well as being headless, luxury lightweight is reinforced by an ergonomic design. The EHB1005MS has a contoured, chambered body that is slanted on the top half at the back, blending the bass beautifully with your body. And, if that's not enough, there is also extra carving on the back of the body behind the lower horn for better control and higher fret access. Imagine a performance with no limitations. Now, live it.
If the Terminator was a guitar...
Built with high-quality components for the ultimate instrument. The EHB1005MS is packed with insane elements that make an unstoppable bass. It all starts with an American Basswood body bolted securely to a five-piece roasted maple/walnut neck. This creates a deliciously balanced tone and a clear attack with bite. The roasted maple in the neck has been perfectly treated with heat. This means extra tolerance of environmental factors, as well as extended stability, durability and moisture resistance. Increase this durability with the stainless steel frets. You can avoid rusting and add brightness to your tone along the way.
In a nutshell, this guitar can withstand pretty much anything - it's a lifelong companion.
You'll always have a fan
Step out of the box in comfort. The fanned fretboard not only increases playability but opens the door to a world of sonic experiment. Each of the strings has a longer scale, harnessing clarity and articulation in your treble and a distinct tone at the low end. It's all achieved with careful crafting. Precisely angled, the construction of the frets holds the key to comfortable fingerwork and a sound that will make stone weep.
Never lose control of your sound. The great thing about this guitar is that the bridge is specially designed to enhance intonation range. Every piece of the MR5HS bridge is individually attached with stability - creating a maximum transfer of the vibrations. You can adjust the saddles for string spacing +/-1.5mm to perfectly match your unique playing style. Say goodbye to compromise.
Bartolini brilliance
With these titan pickups, perfection is achievable. The Bartolini BH2 pickups have a dual-coil style configuration for an unparalleled balance. The BH2's have a lower resonant frequency which means a toasty warm response that can thaw Jack Frost himself, a tight bottom end and a deliciously fat midrange. Give your music the quality output it deserves.
Add personality to your mid-frequency tone. Your musical personality is what makes you stand out. Now, stand out even further. The Vari-mid three-band EQ gives you the ability to produce a variety of insane sounds, from tasty low-mids to face-melting high mids. It would be criminal not to delve into the possibilities. Keep the crowd vamped and always be prepared for anything. When the EQ is bypassed, you get passive operation with the treble control acting as a passive tone control. Feel what it's like to be an unstoppable force. Witness greatness.
