Darkglass Electronics Vintage Microtubes Bass Preamp Pedal

Get Legendary Tone With This Darkglass Electronics Vintage Microtubes Bass Preamp Pedal

The Microtubes Vintage is our tribute to some of the most legendary sounds in rock history. It provides warm tube-like tones with a natural dynamic response that echoes the organic compression of old tube amps and reel-to-reel tape machines.

LEVEL

Sets the volume of the overdriven signal.

DRIVE

Sets the amount of saturation in the overdriven signal.

BLEND

Mixes the clean input signal with the overdriven signal. The clean signal remains at unity gain while the volume of the overdriven signal is set by the Level knob, allowing for fine control of the blend ratio.

ERA

Interacts with the Drive knob to shape the character of the pedal. Dial it down to get the warm midrange tones of the 70s or crank it up to get the punchy metallic tones of 80s and 90s rock.

DIMENSIONS

11.3×7.5 cm (4.45×2.95 in)
