EBow Plus : Versatile Kit

I have been using this E-Bow for a few months now on electric guitar and bass and I am really surprised with its versatility. Firstly, the two settings allow for a range of uses on electric guitar. The standard resonance is great for long sustained notes, and when coupled with the right amp/pedal settings can produce really dreamy, ethereal sounds. The harmonic setting is great for producing controllable feedback sounds which are great in heavier songs. It is also really easy to control the volume of the guitar my moving the E-Bow further away from the string.

The E-Bow also works really well on bass guitar, however I find that the tone it produces sounds much more digital and lacks warmth. That being said, using bass pedals alongside the E-Bow has helped to shape the tone and I have found use for this and it works really well.
