The
Bass TightDrive™ overdrive pedal came about after Greg Weeks from The
Red Chord tried out the 'guitar' version at the NAMM show. He really
liked it, and after some tweaks, this final fine-tuned Bass version is
now ready for the public. It's perfect for tweaking your bass amp's
tone, anything from tightening up the attack a little to building a
thick distortion for pick-driven metal bass lines.
In addition
to Greg, other artists using the Bass TightDrive include dUg Pinnick of
King’s X, and Sean Frankhouser with Bugs Henderson.
The
biggest number of Product Idea submissions received so far were from
people looking for overdrive and/or boost pedals that could provide
tighter low end. This led to the Tight Control, which allows you to
adjust the amp's attack, varying it from smooth and singing to chunky
and aggressive attack.
When combined with the Gain, Tone, and Volume controls, a lot of different distortion sounds are possible. The tonal variations range from thick bass tones, from barely clean and fat walking blues, to crunchy rhythm sounds, all the way up to seriously overdriving your tube amp for really heavy bass. It's also possible to use it to clean up a tube amp that might otherwise sound too floppy when you play it really hard.
Another
popular Bass TightDrive feature is the rear effects loop which allows
you to add any kind of effect to this overdrive pedal, so you can
customize your tone further. There's even a Pre/Post button underneath
the pedal so you can move the outboard effect in front of or after the
Bass TightDrive. When you bypass the TightDrive pedal, the other effect
or effects will be bypassed as well. This feature is great if you want
to further tweak the distortion tone with a Pre or Post EQ, or to add
compression in front, or an octaver, chorus or other favorite effect.
