MGR/Golem « Tech 21 Bass Driver »
Published on 09/06/04 at 15:00$89 used at Guitar Ctr Albany NY.
Had gone to one of their clearance
sales and was just browsing around.
I knew Tech 21 NYC stuff is very OK
because I'm already using their Bass
Compactor, a compressor with EQ.
It is both tube simulator and a DI box.
I know what my Fender Bassman tube amps sound like, and know their limitations.
The Bass Driver is a decent mimic, not
quite 100% fool-your-ear, of the Bassman
sound, but it can produce that tone over
a much wider range of volume levels and
at any level of drive-effect you choose.
The Bassman itself increases the drive
sound linked to increases in volume that
are not always appropriate for the venue
or the audience. The Bass Driver solves
this dilema and I find the trade-off
