GENERAL OPERATION:
The EXB is an active EQ circuit for bass guitar that simultaneously increases both low and high frequencies while decreasing mid-range.
The graph below illustrates the effect of the EXB. The thick black line displays the effect with the control all the way up (clockwise).
The flat black line illustrates the effect with the control all the way down (counter-clockwise) in the bypass mode. The EXB is continuously
variable from flat to maximum effect. The EXB is wired in series with the signal path, so there is an input and output.
The EXB has buffered inputs and can be used with passive pickups.
Frequency Response:

Warranty
All EMG Pickups and accessories are warranted for a period of two years. This warranty does not cover failure due to improper installation, abuse or damage. If
