Advanced bassists require an advanced EQ system that’s portable enough for the stage. The OriginAL’s 5 EQ tone controls offer a full spectrum of tone sculpting capabilities. By using the three mid controls you can effectively remove the frequencies needed for other instruments, whilst emphasising the frequencies needed for a thick, dense tone. The OriginAL’s 12AX7 valve drive has a natural break up which is ideal for directly recording from. In a live situation, the ‘showtime’ button adds the extra flare to your sound. The OriginAL can be carried to each event in place of an amplifier and give you the exact tone you’re familiar with.
