HG BASS
The HG BASS is a high gain bass distortion pedal, using Mesa Boogie's distortion voicing. Unlike many other overdrive and distortion pedals, this one was NOT designed to be clean and it is NOT designed to be transparent (although it can get very close). Not for the faint of heart, it has a voice all of its own, with a full low end, but with accentuated mids to cut through the mix. It can be run with a very low amount of distortion (almost clean), but the mid to high gain settings are where this pedal really shines. It doesn’t use diodes or opamps for its distortion, but rather 5 discreet Jfet transistors emulating a high gain tube amp being pushed into distortion. The controls consist of gain, presence, treble, mids, bass and volume.​ It is mounted in a polished and acid etched 1590B2 (which is a slightly taller 1590B) with all top jacks and has a relayed true bypass. Due to the complexity of this build I am only going to be only making one for myself and three for sale. This pedal cannot be purchased anywhere else. The one pictured is the one that you will receive. It can run on a power supply from 9-18volts. All of my builds are built from scratch. I design, etch, drill and tin plate the PCBs, hand solder all of the components, and polish and acid etch the enclosures, making them 100% boutique. 

Only ONE available- the one pictured.
