Carvin
Carvin makes bass guitars with fantastic tone, design and durability! All made in the USA!
Bjorn plays Carvin SB- & Icon series 4-, 5-string and fretless basses. Bjorn also uses Carvin Wireless Systems for live perfomances.


EBS
Simply the most clear and true sounding amp systems out there! Their amazing engineering reflects greatly on the EBS pedals as well. Bjorn tours and records with the powerful and much versatile and recently released Fafner II amp with 8x10 cabinets, as well as MultiComp and MultiDrive Pedals.


Mari Strings
Daniel Mari's father was the founder of LaBella Strings, and Daniel used to custom make strings for greats such as The Beatles and Jimi Hendrix. Daniel is truly a master of string making and his factory manufactures strings for any string instrument you can imagine ! Bjorn has played Mari Strings since 1997, and strings his electric and acoustic guitars with them as well. He strings all his basses with the Spiral 2000 gauged .045, .065, .085, .105. These strings as well as the even gauge gives him even tension through out the neck as well as a strong, versatile and longlasting sound.


Hipshot D-tuners
With the simple flick of a switch you can tune your E-string to a D or as low as a C !  Bjorn has used them on his basses since 1991. They come in chrome, black or gold, are easy to install and are available for almost all models of basses. A great investment !  Bjorn also uses Hipshot
Ultra Lites Bass Tuning Machines to reduce weight and to balance his basses.


Spectraflex
is the most flexible, practical and reliable instrument cable on the market.
