Bass Sweeper : Handy, small and affordable pedal to have

7 years ago

Delivers a pretty nice sound considering you can wrap your whole hand in it! It's really fun to mess with, but kind of a one trick pony for such a quirky effect. There are a few things that should be noted though.

1- I prefer when the 'Fuzz' is engaged but it gives you a boost in volume when you activate the pedal. The intensity knob reduces the effect itself and not the volume output (which I guess could have been another feature).

2- I play my bass with the knob that controls treble half way turned and even then I found it better to turn it all down. This pedal picks up every string 'pluck' or 'smack' on the pick-ups reproduces it with a very piercing high sound unless you play more calmly. But maybe that's something I'll get used to or fix with more fine tuning on the preamp that's running before.

I basically bought it so I didn't have pay for shipment. Overall, for the price (!!), it's a great sounding pedal and with some other pedals running delivers very tasty sounds that I'm sure will be using!
