Hey all! Today we're transforming my EHB1005MS into an EHB1505MS using a very powerful trick. Afterwards, we're going to explore the EHB1505MS and compare it to it's cheaper counterpart. Is the EHB1505MS worth the extra $500 over the EHB1005MS? Watch to find out!

First video I see of this channel
I like how there's are $500 difference between the 1005 and the 1505 models...it's like they worked the price into the model name
Exactly the video I've been waiting for this line of basses. Looking forward for the upcoming EHB video's!
Wow. Love the sound of the nordstrands. Gonna definitely drop a set in my 1005. I do agree that the mellowness of the barts is nice, but you can dial back the top end of clearer pickups a lot more easily than try to add in clarity to something dark. I also think many people who are attracted to these instruments (myself included) want to use them in a metal/prog context where some clank and grit are desirable. Great video!!!!!
Ahhh yes! I’d seen this a while back and had to watch it again! The hair metal screams are epic! I was dying!!!
You're my fave bass channel right now. I never got the hype about the 1005 even though a lot of channels were pushing it real hard. It just didn't sound interesting. Now, having seen this video I realize that the pickups were the weak link. The 1505 sounds much much better with these pickups. Can't wait to hear the Aguilars!
You have got to bring back this type of entertainment to your videos so much fun to watch!! Great great video
I've got the EHB1506MS and really like it so far. I sold a pristine Cirrus Tiger Eye 5 that just didn't have the sizzle of the 1506 with the Nordstrands. Your A/B comparison somewhat mimics the issue I was having with the Peavey (which had the nicest neck I think I've ever played, but oh well). Great video!
That part at
your incantation was seriously the funniest thing I have seen on TH-cam ever .. it still makes me belly laugh
Looking forward to the video with the swap out. Thanks so much!
I keep coming back to this just to watch the magic trick. Comedic gold!
Great review!! This answers everything I wanted to know back when they released these. Much prefer the look of the 1005MS but was never a big fan of Barts, if your pickup swap goes well I'll be tempted to get one and do the same.
Poking around to see if you ever did a review of a Ray Ross saddleless bridge and found this gem. My favorite so far. Your incantation was epic! I mean EPIC!
I am so on the fence between the two models, thanks for thehelp! subbed
I love the Nordstrand Big Splits on my 1505 and if I thought I was going to purchase a 1005 and mod it with Aguilars, the increased cost of the 1505 to me is arguably justified. I would like to see a 5-string EHB with Ibanez T1 pickups; they're the best sounding in-house pickups I've heard on an Ibanez.
I'm really looking forward to the Aguilar upgrade video! I chose to buy the lower cost 1005ms (still waiting on mine) hoping to eventually upgrade the pickups. Don't care about the fancier woods but do want the better tone. I figured bass ($1112.99 (with GC coupon code))+new pickups (+/-$200)=+/-$1312.99 is still a heck of a lot cheaper than the 1505ms. Please don't dawdle with bringing us this video! Thank you!
I would be very excited to see if you pick up one of the short scale EHB's that are coming out. Short scale is more my thing(4 string 30") but Ive also been very curious how a mid-short multiscale 5 would work out, the 30-32" on the short scale 5 is very enticing.
Sweet bass! Even better video!
I wanted to make my own TH-cam channel but then I ran into a lobster themed guitar channel that has the starting quote “salutations crustaceans” and now realize nothing I do will ever beat that
