​"Black is beautiful, but it sounds great too! 100% balanced sound in every position. With a nice growl to it, that makes it cut through. This bass is a love baby from Rickenbacker and Fender, trapped in a vintage Gibson body. A piece of art."
​Ivo Severijns (ex- Herman Brood & his Wild Romance, ex -Kane, Waylon)

"​I absolutely love it when old school meets new school! This bass has the looks and feel of a classic Gibson with the sound of a Telecaster bass on acid. It's simple yet very diverse. From a warm vintage sound to a killer modern rock growl... This monster has it all!"
Rob van der Loo (ex-Delain, Epica, MaYaN)

"Man merkt dem Brooks EB-PL Noir an, mit wie viel Liebe er entwickelt und gebaut wurde. Kein Industrieprodukt, sondern reines Handwerk mit klarer Referenz an einen Gibson-Bass, den Gibson so nie gebaut hat, ergänzt mit kleinen Details wie der einem Rickenbacker-Sondermodell nachempfundenen Farbgebung, und größeren Details wie dem fenderigen Pickup von Seymour Duncan in der getunten Quarter-Pounder-Version. Auch der wuchtig-holzige
Ton ist weder Gibson noch Fender, sondern ein ganz eigener Hybrid mit Anteilen von beiden – und am Ende ein echter Brooks. Das Gewicht ist hoch, aber die sich einstellende Balance macht den Bass für mich auch länger trag- und spielbar. Für alle Fans gibsonesker Bässe mit spielerisch kombinierten Features lohnt sich der Blick auf die Webseite,
zumal der Preis absolutfair ist!"
