Unique bass distortion pedal to create the fire-breathing overdrive sound. A band of frequencies in the mid range of the bass signal is selected and the distortion effect is only applied to those frequencies creating a unique overdrive flavour whereby the top and bottom end remains untouched, but the powerful mids can be tuned from a mild-growl to full-on distortion. Whether you're using an active or passive bass, the Ashdown VU meter in combination with the Input level knob let's you easily find the sweet spot. The pedal features metal casings, premium controls and switches, recessed knobs and kickguards to protect screens and VU meters. We don't mess with your tone. Ashdown Pedals feature genuine 'true bypass' switching for zero-colouration of your input signal when the pedal isn't in use. The dimensions of the pedal are 60 x 153 x 145 mm.
