EBS Billy Sheehan Ultimate Drive Pedal - EB-BSU

The EBS Billy Sheehan Ultimate Signature Drive pedal allows you to blend clean and distorted bass channels without hauling around two rigs.

Parallel Signal Paths:

The pedals splits your signal into clean and distorted paths - just like with two rigs!  Adjust the blend with the Clean and Drive Level controls.  A built-in compressor (with internal threshold control) keeps your tone tight and punchy.

Low-End Punch & Gain Boost:

Use the Phase Inverter switch to recover lost low-end due to phase cancellation.  Engage the Boost footswitch for extra gain when you need to cut through. 

Expanded Tone Control:

A Hi/Lo Frequency Filter shifts the Tone control's entire spectrum, unlocking distortion tones unavailable in previous versions.

Dual FX Loops for More Flexibility:

Separate effects loops for Clean and Drive paths allow you to process each channel independently.  Have a bass with dual outputs?  Use the Clean Loop jack to run lows clean while shaping mids/highs through the main input.
