The EBow Plus is a quirky but powerful tool for experimental guitarists. It’s not a replacement for traditional effects, but it offers a truly unique, almost otherworldly sustain that’s perfect for sound design, ambient textures, and creating those signature Steve Hackett-esque tones. It takes practice to dial in, but the payoff is huge for those willing to explore.

Product Description

EBow EBow Plus, Effect for guitarDespite its frequent use in classics of rock and pop history, the EBow plays an outsider's role in the large pool of guitar effects - often heard, rarely recognised is the motto here.

Yet this inconspicuous little helper offers what many guitarists have been dreaming of since time immemorial: sustain, unlimited and virtually without end.

But even beyond that, previously unknown worlds of sound open up to the experienced EBower on the guitar. In this way, violin and flute-like tones, synthesiser sounds or ghost melodies in the style of Steve Hackett find their way into the repertoire of the experimental electric guitarist.

, The EBow generates a magnetic field, causing the string to vibrate endlessly., Now additionally with "Harmonic" mode, Power supply via a 9 V battery (not included), Incl. instructions and bag
