Get the perfect tone, with brutality and clarity equally on hand, with the Microtubes B3K2 from Darkglass Electronics, an intuitive overdrive pedal for bass guitars that offers a defined and powerful overdrive with a simple layout. Using the Blend knob for wet/dry mix and separate Drive and Level controls, so you can fully unleash your tone.

The Tone knob controls the high-frequency content of your signal with a variable low-pass filter that sweeps between 3 kHz (counter-clockwise) and 8 kHz (clockwise). Two push buttons offer further refined control of your tone: Grunt engages a huge low-end boost to thicken your sound, while Mid Boost adds a subtle 6 dB boost from 300 Hz to 1 kHz, letting your bass cut through the mix better.

[Black / Silver] I bought this to replace other non-digital compression and eq pedals. I was not interested in calling up many patches. I try to get a McCartney sound and along with nylon flats on a Hofner this allows me to dial it in. I use the Bassman preamp, para-eq's, graphic eq, dbx 160 and MXR stle compressors. I created 3 different patches, tic tac bass, plinky but full bass and deeper bass. I play with two acoustic guitarists in smaller rooms so I use a small Gallien Krueger amp or a Markbass 12 inch combo. My only complaint is that none of the compression settings have any visuals showing gain reduction so it's all up to my ears. Sound quality is great. I haven't spent much time trying out the other patches but their Markbass patch impressed me on how close it was to a Markbass amp.

[Metal] Got it in the bundle along with the Roland TD11K e-drum. Dual chain makes it a bit more stable and it comes with a drum key attached to it. I'm no drum expert, so this is as far as I'll go.
