Bass Soul Food : It is what it is - useful!

5 years ago

A good little pedal for those who need a light overdrive.

Adds lovely top end grit to the signal, the blend knob stops you losing too much of the bass frequencies. Works brilliantly with a pick and palm muting - adds some nice chunky sparkle to the sound.

A very good sound, well built at a good price. Two issues: the switch pops. Some complain about every time, for me it seems to only be the first time you use the pedal. I always quickly engage it and disengage it after plugging in the pedalboard - after that, no issues.

The other issue is that like a lot of EHX pedals, it?s quite thin sounding. It does need help from a boost somewhere in your signal chain.

Still recommended, but be aware it?s not for everyone.
