The
EBS Session60
is a solid-state
amplifier combo, extremely easy to dial-in.
The Session60 is a downscaled design from
the Classic450 head to perform extremely
well in all styles and situations. The sound
is a combination of vintage bass sound and
the transparent ’EBS’ sound that let your
playing style and the character of your
instrument speak. Versatility is provided by
a carefully designed EQ with a wide range
of possible settings. By using the built in
auxiliary input in stereo, you can use this
combo for practicing at home with
headphones. These brief tutorials will help
you to become acquainted with some of the
features of the
EBS Session60
combo.

ETTING STARTED
...
1.
Carefully unpack the bass combo.
2.
Check that the Volume and Gain controls are
set to zero, fully counter clockwise. Set all
the other controls to mid position and make
sure that the switches marked
Character
and
Enh.Filter
are in their outer position. Now
the EBS Session60s' settings are "zeroed"
and ready to be personalized.
3.
Power up the combo and plug in your bass.
4.
While plucking the strings as hard as you
would during your hardest playing, adjust the
GAIN knob until the PEAK led starts to flash
only at highest peaks.
5.
Move over to the VOLUME knob and adjust
for the desired output volume.
