One Control Hooker`s Green BassmachineBass Preamp Guitar Effects pedalFeatures The Hooker's Green Bassmachine has the wide dynamic range of bass tubeamps and is able to pick up subtle expressions while adding some loveto the bottom end of your tone. This pedal can also be used as anoverdrive pedal when paired with a guitar. Specifications
Bjorn's Description: The Challenge The biggest challenge to overcome was the fact that guitarists andbassists feel things differently. While they pursue the best soundon the same ground,they do it in differentways. Understanding what they visualize was the toughest challengefor us. This pedal can intuitively reproduce the sound that bassistsfeel and imagine in their heads. This pedal is a milestone forOne Control. The tone you imagine manifests itself in this pedal. What does the “distortion effect” mean for bassists? Theynaturally have different ideas depending on their style of play andgenre. Yet, bass distortion effect pedals, especially overdrive pedals,are thought to be an extension of an amp simulator/preamp or onboardactive preamp. In order to fulfill the functions of both an amp and abass, bass overdrive pedals tend to be multi-functional and largein size due to an increased number of knobs and terminals. Pedalboards are getting larger, even more so recently. Distortion andvarious other effects can be used effectively to add color to music.Now, more than ever, bass overdrive effects need casual usability likea guitar overdrive. One Control Hooker's Green Bass Machine embodies everythingbassists need in its small body from the bass amp features to tone anddeep feelings. The Sound Bass tube amps are essential for an old school rock sound.Nothing can beat the controllable tones and feelings they create. Hooker'sGreen Bass Machine gives you the tone and feeling of bass tube amps andold transistor amps when used with a modern bass transistor amp, whichis common in many music venues and studios. When Hooker's Green BassMachine is not in use, you can get a modern transistor amp sound. Bycombining a modern transistor amp that is most commonly used bycontemporary bassists and this small Hooker’s Green Bass Machine, youcan cover all the bass amp sounds that many bassists seek. Hooker's Green Bass Machine has a dynamic range as wide asa bass tube amp and picks up all the subtle expressions that bassistscreate with their fingers. Transitions between clean and distortedsounds are smooth and it creates a gorgeous but stable compression tonelike an old transistor amp when you increase the distortion. It won’t miss any finger touches and accurately producesany groove from blues, fusion, or hard rock to metal. Its moderatelysharp attack and clear sounding keys do not decrease the speed realizedby picking. With slapping, percussive chunks of sound by thumbing popup, and sound created by pulling can be maintained and kept stable. Theability to freely control distortion enables you to play in a relaxedand comfortable way. For heavy tracks using a multi-string bass, the Low trimpot on the side does its job. Hooker's Green Bass Machine has enoughlow-end, but if it’s not enough, adjust the trim pot to unlock evenmore low-end. Hooker's Green Bass Machine’s TREBLE knob has limited rangeto allow subtle adjustment. Many music venues and studios have modernbass amps equipped with powerful EQ and basic bass sound is createdusing that. What is required for an overdrive pedal is delicate sensoryadjustment that is impossible with amp EQ. While a number of bass effects pedals have knobs forblending and mixing, Hooker's Green Bass Machine does not have them.The distortion circuit sometimes narrows the dynamic range and as aresult creates a “coreless” sound. “Blend” is effective for giving“sound variation” in fuzz and space effects but blending in bassoverdrive pedals is only supplementary to dynamic range. Hooker's GreenBass Machine introduced a dynamic amplifier circuit that handles basssignals fully. Thus, it does not create any coreless sound that isimpossible to distort and therefore the blend knob is unnecessary. Italso helped reduce the size of the product. If you absolutely need to blend for sound variation, useOne Control Mosquite Blender for blending any effects. Hooker's Green Bass Machine does not have a balanced outconnector. You can create a lively bass sound with a line connector ifyou connect it to a mixing board directly and use it as a DIpedal. Guitar Use - Guitar Overdrive Pedal Hooker's Green Bass Machine was originally designed to be abass overdrive pedal but can function as guitar overdrive pedal aswell. Its wide dynamic range covers the full range of the guitarfrequency and creates various sounds from a clean sound after applyingthe highest quality compression available to a thicker medium overdrivesound. It’s highly responsive and its ability to express variousdistortions with the guitar’s volume control is beyond many guitaroverdrive pedals. Its response is comparable with One ControlStrawberry Red Overdrive and Anodized Brown Distortion that have thehighest response level. Hooker's Green Bass Machine creates BJF’s “trademark”unique solid dark European tones when it is used as a guitar overdrivepedal. The frequency range that also supportsmulti-string bass is ideal for guitars tuned low as well as seven,eight, and nine-string modern guitars. High Voltage Operation Hooker's Green Bass Machine operates under high voltagewhen used with up to an 18V adapter. With higher voltage, head room isincreased to allow even richer expression while reducing the gainslightly. Although it’s most effective for solo bass or guitar, 9Voperation might give a stronger core when used in ensemble or guitarriffs. You can change the voltage according to your needs. Hooker's Green Bass Machine is an all-purpose bass machinefor any genre of music after the 1950s. If I had to compare thesound to an artist, I would compare it to Lemmy's iconic bass soundfrom Motorhead. A |
