【new】GROOVE TONE / Bassolution Drive【GIB Yokohama】

GROOVE TONE is a German-based effects pedal brand.

Producer Kim Schrader is a talented builder who built his own tube amp at the age of 15.

He is also a guitarist.

Leveraging his stage experience and development knowledge, he specializes in creating high-quality effects pedals for touring and studio musicians.

This model is an overdrive/preamp pedal for bass.
The idea behind it is to recreate the sound of a large tube amp driven by a large cabinet at your feet.

The actual sound is appealing, with a pleasant saturation with a hint of compression and a thick, rough drive sound.

The controls are simple: Bass, Volume, Tone, Lead, and Drive.

Enables intuitive sound shaping.

The Go! switch turns the pedal on/off.
It specializes in distortion sounds ranging from a slightly saturated tube amp sound to crunch and overdrive.

Bass controls the low frequencies below 150Hz.

However, rather than simply boosting/cutting the clean signal, this is controlled via the built-in sidechain.

The more you boost, the stronger the compression, preventing excessive low-frequency volume and increasing the bass's presence.

Even when turned all the way up, the tone remains loud and open.

We recommend actively boosting to create your own sound.

The Lead switch turns on the Lead control, allowing you to obtain an even deeper drive sound.

It specializes in everything from overdrive sounds to growling distortion sounds.

Even when distorted heavily, it retains the original nuances of the bass while evolving into a more unified sound, which is appealing.

I was surprised at how it truly sounds like a distorted tube amp.

I highly recommend trying it for yourself.

The inclusion of a jack to output the dry sound is a modern, contemporary feature of this effects pedal.

This is a must-have for those seeking a louder, more powerful drive sound and a rich, saturated sound reminiscent of a tube amplifier.
