I have this pedal and I love it more than any other preamp i've ever demo'd. Affordable, great tube overdrive, great EQ shaping capabilites, and great output boost. I give it a 9 out of 10.
This tool is unbeatable. As it can be run by phantom power, all you need for a gig is your bass, 2 cables and this tool. no battery, no electro-plug, etc. needed. Of course, you can run it by battery/electro, and you can paralelly run your amp with this sound or you make a BI-amping by having the amp-sound on stage.. and adding shape to it through the DI/PA-conncetivity...
So what's the deal with this page 9 thing...if that schematic aint real, how usable is this with other stompboxes in a live effects chain? DOes it still work like any other stome box effects pedal?
Just brought one home this weekend. Within the first 10 seconds I picked it up and kissed it. Solid build and exactly the type of tone variation options I was looking for. At a cost of 88 bucks I feel I have really done well with this piece of tone gear. I could say confidently, that you will not be disappointed buying this unit.
...this pedal IS WAAAAYYYY BETTER that may hear on this review, i got one, is the best tone shaper you can find, every time i plug this thing on stage, studio or recording session everyone come and ask for it... its a demon, go get one, ..sorry bro but this review doesnt made it honor to the pedal... plus try it with the line output, I mean, I dont Care about the amp you are using, IT WILL GET BETTER!
@vileguile4 I've tried that :D It does not change the sound that much. But you can use it as an equalizer, whereby it mainly effects the lower tones...

Does it support phantom power ?

@kuchilage YES! at that is the most unique selling point for this tool. Only IT and your bass (if a PA is around).. and you´re done.

Is this similar to Xotic RC Bass booster? I'm choosing between the two. I just need an effect that will enhance and sustain my tone.

so being a "DI", this thing is placed after the amp before going to mixer (live setting)? Thanks!

It certainly does fatten/tighten a bass up. It would even make a cheapy with a crappy pickup sound decent!
