Shift Your Tones With Ease Using The Genzler 4 On The Floor Classic Bass Overdrive Pedal
Genzler Amplification shares with us all, a “redux collaboration” that brings Jeff Genzler and engineer Andy Field back together again – developing a new line of bass effect pedals under the Genzler Amplification brand. Both forces have shared design passions that date back to the early 1990’s while working together at Jeff’s previous company, Genz Benz. Andy, Jeff and current Genzler Amplification principal engineer Scott Andres were responsible for the products that put Genz Benz on the map, so many years ago. After parting ways after Genz Benz, Andy was soon brought-on at Mesa Boogie to develop their flagship line of Subway bass products. Eventually Jeff and his wife Catherine decided to jump back into the game, starting up Genzler Amplification along with Scott Andres as principal engineer. Jeff and Scott working together again developed such innovative products as the Bass Array cabinet designs, the Magellan series of bass amplification, the Acoustic Array combos, and recently the Nu Classic series bass cabs.
While Andy remains at Mesa designing new Mesa specific products, with the blessings of management there, this new “gig” brings back the fun and collaboration of working closely with good ole’ friends and compadres. “When you’ve worked so long together in the trenches over a few decades, having this team back together just feels good all over again” – Genzler states. Andy Field comments: “it’s like getting the band back together, again”.
The first pedal in the line is the 4 ON THE FLOOR, CLASSIC BASS OVERDRIVE, offering 4 separate “gears” of variable analog overdrive textures and harmonic content to SHIFT through, along with a clean blend feature. HPF and LPF controls are included to shape the overdrive engine’s signal path. This pedal offers touch sensitive asymmetrical and symmetrical overdrive characteristics, variations of compression and overdrive complexity, along with a true bypass. The versatility allows this to be used as a clean boost, along with the various overdrive gears, up to all out heavy saturated drive.
This pedal also offers another level of versatility as it accepts nearly any power supply; 9 – 18 Volts, either polarity. (Power supply not included).
