Use the EBow in place of a guitar pick to create amazing sounds on any guitar with a pickup. The battery-powered EBow creates an energy field that vibrates the guitar string to create infinite sustain and sounds that can mimic horns, harmonicas, woodwinds, string instruments and much more. Position the EBow directly over your guitar's pickup to dramatically increase volume and create a hot sound. Move it away from the pickup to produce a sound similar to a hollowbody guitar. Experiment with various techniques featured in the Player's Guide to make music with your guitar that you never dreamed possible.
The idea for the EBow was hatched in the late 1960s and was formally introduced in 1976. Since then it has been heard on countless recordings by artists that include Blondie, Blue Oyster Cult, David Bowie, The Cars, Def Leppard, Van Halen, Elton John, Metallica, Oasis, Pearl Jam, Pink Floyd, Queen, R.E.M., Red Hot Chili Peppers, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, U2, Frank Zappa and so many more. The latest EBow model is called the PlusEBow and it is the fourth generation. New features found in the PlusEBow include a new and improved overall sound, a new harmonic mode and a blue LED that shines directly on the driven string.
Although the EBow is usually used on electric guitars, it can also be used on acoustic guitars with pickups and even bass guitars. Each EBow includes a detailed Player's Guide, a handy carrying pouch, an EBow decal, a hip lapel button featuring a guitar pick with a slash through it and an instructional cassette tape featuring the secrets of EBow virtuoso Lenny Walker. Get one for your guitar and add a whole new dimension to your repertoire. The EBow is assembled in the USA.
