EBS Fafner II

paid $875 used

I love everything about the fafner. it is by far the best sounding bass amp ive ever played through.It is the loudest amp ive heard, and has unrivaled clarity. The "drive" knob utilizes the tube, and you can dial in a small amount for extra thickness and warmth, or go all the way for distortion and grit. The compressor is very quiet, and tames even the hardest slapping for an even, smooth sound. Amazing tonal quality!!!!

There is nothing i dont like about the Fafner!!

Built with a steel frame,it is of the highest quality materials, its dead quiet,definitely built to last. Ebs uses only the very best components to assure your sound gets out to the audience!! People will hear every note you play with the fafner!!! And it is beauty to the ears!!!

If you are tired of looking for an amp that can do everything, look no further than the Fafner. It delivers astounding bottom end, crystal clear highs, and cutting mids (if you like) and can get "gritty" for rockers. It has massive headroom, and is very loud, even with one 8 ohm cabinet.It will drop to 2 ohms, effortlessly. I am getting comments from everyone on how much my tone has improved since switching to the Fafner, and how great it sounds!!! I rarely have to turn my volume above 3, and it shakes the stage with one cabinet!!! I understand why Marcus Miller and Stanley Clarke use Ebs Amps.They are simply the best on the market.
