With its effective sound-shaping capabilities, the Pocket Bass Amp is a versatile tool for practicing, recording, and gigs. It's both an effects pedal and a preamp in one, perfect for active and passive basses. Drive and saturation controls complement the Clean, Overdrive, and Fuzz modes, and the 3-band equalizer with semi-parametric mid-range control is specifically designed for the frequency response of electric basses. The Pocket Bass Amp also simulates the characteristics of modern and vintage speakers, and the Blend control allows for seamless mixing of the original and effected signals.
External effects pedals, audio players, and headphones for silent practice can all be connected to the Pocket Bass Amp, and the tuner output can be assigned to the footswitch. The compact unit also functions as a DI box; the balanced XLR output can be switched before or after the signal processing by the Pocket Bass Amp. The sturdy die-cast housing, bright LED status indicators, and a ground lift switch complete the feature list. The Pocket Bass Amp requires a 9V battery or a power adapter for operation.
