American TrueTone : Review on bass

10 years ago

This is my first Harley Benton effect pedal. I bought it to use on bass, and as it is my main instrument it is about it's performance as a bass effect that i am going to base my review on.

First of all, i'm going to talk about bass loss: you really don't need to worry about it, as the bass loss is really insignificant, and you can correct that easily with the 3 band eq on the pedal.

In terms of sound: it sounds good!

If you don't push the drive knob past half it gives you a warm sound with some light distortion in it.

When you push the drive past 3/4 it starts to sound fuzzy like, wich i really like.

It's a very versatile pedal, as it sounds good both in light distortion and in fuzz like distortion
