MGR/Billy « AMT Slap Bass »
Published on 12/12/10 at 15:00This is the white pedal put out by the Russian Space Station...or well no a company named AMT or Asia Musick Technology. The knobs are Level, Low, High and Drive.
A friend turned me onto these pedals and set me up with one. New they run about $100
I like it%27s fizzy high end distortion while still having plenty of lows available. That is the problem with most bass distortion pedals is the lack of low end, but not in the Slap bass.
The bypass switch is cheap and sometimes doesn%27t want to switch over. I also got a really horrifying squeal from this pedal once, maybe it had to do with bad power at a club?
I do max out the gain just to get a medium breakup. If you want high gain, I'd look into another AMT pedal.
OK. Just OK, not good, not terrible. As I said before, the switch could be improved. Through years of playing it still works. I have accrued a few nice paint scrapes.
A very underrated pedal. It nails the gritty breakup of an old Ampeg SVT without having to bring out the kitchen sink or fridge!
