    I use a Rick 4003 thru a G&K 700 head with an Epifani 2/10 cab. This pedal makes the Rick growl, chime and roar..... it also just plain replaced all my other pedals in one fell swoop.

  • Good product that I would definitely buy! Love Trace Elliot

    This a great preamp pedal! Very good sounds come out of this device. Great for the apartment or late night jam to your favorite songs.

  • Better than anything I've tried

    Great design, simple self explanatory control. Great preamp power going DI to system but it has obvious noise with all four effect features. No problem as long as you remember to turn the effect off when not playing. Otherwise very quiet. I really am impressed because it sends a much better signal to FOH that the Hartke Bass Attack or GK MB200 that I've been using. The TE preset is very impressive.

    Does this take the place of an amp head or do you use it inline with one? For example, would you go bass guitar/ transit b/ elf head/ cabinet or bass guitar/ transit b/ bass cabinet?

    This does not take the place of an amp head.
