Aguilar Agro Bass Overdrive Pedal

The AGRO is based on the saturation channel of Aguilar’s AG 500 bass head.

“Capable of producing everything from warm, tube-like overdrive to full on distortion, this pedal will give you the grind you need without sucking out your low end, ” the manufacturer says.

The AGRO offers overdriven sounds within a 4-knob layout. The saturation control offers a range of distortion while the contour control allows you to dial in a scooped or a more aggressive, boosted midrange sound. The presence knob adds the right amount of ‘attack’ ensuring that your bass remains defined even with the most saturated settings. The output level control is designed to guarantee that you’ll be able to get the distortion you want at any volume level, Aguilar promises.

Features:

• Separate Saturation and output level controls

• Contour control: broad spectrum mid scoop centered around 900Hz

• Presence control: + 6dB/-20dB >4kHz

• Gig-saver bypass (signal passes even if your battery dies)

• Power: Nine-volt battery or optional universal power supply

• Steel construction
