I'm curious about this Bass Driver - I know you can run it direct to a PA, but can you run it straight to a cabinet, or do you need an amp in between them?

Its just a preamp so you still need and amp or power amp at the very least. I have used mine to drive a power amp with decent results.

I usually run it in front of the amp head, while it's a little noisy that way, it seems that the controls are little more responsive than when running it into the Preamp In. I haven't done much tweaking with it; it sounds great right away when I plug my Warwick with Dimarzio Ultra Jazz pickups into it.

No not at all. Was just throwing it out there. It compares very well to the Sansamp.


You can also find the MXR Bass DI for pretty cheap used and I like its EQ better than the Sansamp, but its distortion circuit is pretty bad.

So here's my "idiot didnt get done on time for BOTB" bass board

Loving the White Finger Compressor, and the Commander might just be the most useful pedal I've bought- its not flashy or attractive but it's fantastic!


I wouldn't mind squeezing a tiny flanger or chorus on there though (any suggestions??), and possibly a tc polytune mini tuner if it fits



The VT bass is getting Montana canned Purple, after I mod it for a speaker sim kill switch

I got it cheap because all the graphics were messed up,they'd been lifted off by duct tape-I think it'll look good with orange knobs thumb.gif


Vinyl wrapping the two end pieces is gonna be a bitch to do though frown.gif
