My favorite is the EBS with a Peave vintage power amp and Ampeg 4'x10 1x15 a balance of old and new sound nice

Love my vintage SansAmp Bass DI, SVT in a box, ultra reliable...! 😎
@WilDBeestMF3 ай бұрын
It's crazy how much it sounds and responds like an SVT-CL and an 8x10 sometimes. I have since gotten a Darkglass B7K but it's really more of an overdrive for me. I don't think I'll ever let the Sansamp go.

I just bought an SVT-CL. I had one years ago and had an opportunity to buy one really cheap. After lugging it around for a couple gigs, I may end up, deciding to go back to a pedal? They do sound like 1 million bucks though 🤔

I've got an Atomic Bass Box in my truck as a back up. Never leave home without it!
@SeattleSam-ul5hr4 ай бұрын
I just discovered that thing on Reverb (I’ve been playing bass since ‘86, and I’ve never seen one before). It looks like the perfect all-in-one solution, but I’m prone to buy things and still always want more.

Another fan of the Atomic Bass Box. An ABB paired with a Zoom MS-60B is my current rig.

FYI…the bypass on the EBS MicroBass 3 is the filter/EQ bypass, not the compression bypass. Turning the compressor off happens when you just turn the knob to 0.

I have deep emotions regarding my Ampeg® SCR-DI Bass DI with Scrambler Bass Overdrive. On my baritone Gretsch hollowbody guitar even. The Lo Filter makes the meat fall off the bone.

DO any of these have speaker emulations as well?
@macheteofdoom3 ай бұрын
I just got rid of a of a preamp pedal not mentioned here because of distortion in line causes by the LED on the compression portion of the pedal. The EBS has that same issue looks like.
@johnlackner1193Ай бұрын
it seems like most of these preamps just repeat the same controls that are on the amp, with one or two bells and whistles thrown in. But some of them have a few good EQ controls, like sweepable mids and a compressor, which don't appear on many bass amps.

What do you think, is the Battalion a worthy preamp or a budget compromise?

@barisbungybass35772 ай бұрын
Aguilar Tone Hammer Preamp is the greatest. I've been using it everywhere, recording or on stage. One another thing is; using all these preamps with precision sound is a big mistake. Also I am only one in the world who hate precision sound. Neck pickup sounds like double bass but. It's NOT.
@scotthinzman20646 күн бұрын
Its a preamp pedal with a built in DI. DI stands for "direct input". Technical terminology matters

Also, finally got done with the video. 😅 Personally, I think the two distortion/overdrive ones hit different. And the one with the tuner also piqued my interest. Kinda fire forreal. I was impressed.

I wouldn’t buy any of these, they all sound pretty lame in the demo. I’m always looking for something better than what I have and this isn’t it.
