With a solution for every sound, this new range of pedals might just replace your entire collection!
Inspired by one of Fender and their most famous sounds, the new range of Bassman pedals are built for bass-centric tonal expansion.
Bassman Driver: Conjure varying shades of gain, from light tube-like breakup to hi-gain chunk, while keeping your low end intact. Utilising a complement of JFET circuitry and dynamic clipping stages, the Bassman Driver emulates the behaviour of a bass tube amp driven to breakup. Flick the voice switch into the up position to kick in an additional layer of clipping for a heavy modern distortion voicing. Sculpt your tone further using the mids switch, offering two dialled-in levels of growl, and an internal tone control to set the high frequency content to your liking. The blend control keeps your low end solid by blending body and dynamics from your clean tone back into the mix.

Bassman Fuzz: Thick and wooly bass fuzz for the ages: cramming decades of bass fuzz tones into a small footprint, this pedal offers two voices of speaker-pumping grit and all the right controls to keep your low end solid.
Bassman Delay: Enter the world of subsonic soundscapes with delay engineered for bass. The Bassman Delay brings delay to the low end wielding two professional DSP algorithms designed specifically to repeat bass signal. Select between smooth analog repeats or crisp digital delay tones with a flick of the type switch, while the time and feedback controls determine the delay time and number of repeats. Shape the low frequency presence in your delay repeats using the low switch, letting you decide if your delays fade out lightly on top of your signal, keeping the low end clear, or duplicate the full signal for beat- repeat like waves of bass. Delve into the depths of ambience and find exciting new percussive grooves with the Bassman Delay.
Bassman Reverb: This pedal specialises in delivering ambience while keeping low-end transients clear, thanks to the low cut control which removes low frequencies from the reverb trails to prevent muddiness.
Bassman Compressor: A no fuss professional compressor tailored specifically for bass instruments, the Bassman Compressor focuses on ease-of-use and great tone.
