7. EBow
Here’s a fun fact: the EBow was originally introduced
at the Chicago NAMM show in 1976. Shocking,
isn’t it? But even after almost four decades, the
EBow is still one of the most desirable guitar
accessories you can buy.
The EBow focuses a sympathetic oscillating
magnetic field on a single string, causing it to vibrate
in a manner similar to that of a bowed violin—thus the
name. And even though it is limited to one string, the
EBow offers a variety of tones and textures via two
modes (normal and harmonic) and by using different
techniques.
You can buy an EBow at many retailers, but if you want
more info, go to ebow.com.
