Sure an EB0 can sound good through a solid state practice amp but that's because the amp filters out half the frequencies coming from the bass because it can't handle them. I love the mudbucker for what it gives you when it's overdriving tubes.

Well, that certainly explains your avatar.   8)

Played the EB-0 for half a gig on Friday and it sounded great through the MM.  The e-string gave the 2x15's hell, but they hung in there took it.  I had put new DA Half-rounds on it and I was pleased with the feel and the sound.  Compared to the ancient rounds I took off, the tone was nice and bassy, not too muddy, but had enough definition to cut through the rest of the band noise. Comfortable to play and really reasonably priced.

The other half I played the LP Triumph and it performed well too.  Overall, a fun Gibson evening!
