Ultimate Sheehan

Onstage and in the studio, bass virtuoso Billy Sheehan runs a sophisticated bass rig, splitting his signal to achieve his signature sound. The EBS Billy Sheehan Ultimate Signature Drive pedal distills the essential ingredients of Billy’s signal chain compression, distortion, tone shaping, and blending into a bass pedal like no other. The Billy Sheehan Ultimate has two channels Clean and Drive and allows you to blend them together to create your own signature sound. Each channel has its own effects loop for coloring your tone with external effects. An exciting new feature of the EBS Billy Sheehan Ultimate Signature Drive pedal is the Hi/Lo Frequency range switch that shifts the entire frequency spectrum of the Tone filter up or down, vastly extending the pedal’s tone-shaping power.

Shift the range of the Tone control

EBS released the original Billy Sheehan Signature Drive pedal in 2013, and it’s been updated a few times. All the versions have found favor among bassists. The Billy Sheehan Ultimate ups the ante with a major new feature: a Hi/Lo Frequency range switch that shifts the frequency spectrum of the Tone filter up or down to extend its range. The main benefit of this is twofold: the Hi setting adds a whole new palette of distortion sounds, while the Lo setting lets you explore various flavors of aggressive punch and growl.
