It is an RPP, not rpm, of course. Full info on the site treblebooster dot net.
I tested an hour to see a bassman ltd unlayered unfortunately (with a lag roxane splitted microphones was the only available single coil).
I put all six because I can not leave without a note for the publication of the notice, but this type of gear defies notation as it is specific.

What is this pedal? Firstly we can adjust the gain on this model is always boosted, but not too much.
Deusio eq button is a spectrum (as Ibanez classic metal and power lead) that magnifies the sound As it rotates. A stratum may become much hotter and bassy, and a humbucker remain relatively lean.

I noticed that the cut pedal bass, a bit like the rumble filter on microphone inputs of a mixer. Normally, the model was an aiwa Mic ...
Third dick button does exactly what it says, it bites! At zero no action, and turning it more and more aggressive in the treble. Must like ...


UTILIZATION

Is not too hard to use, too bad the fixed boost does not allow the clean. First we adapt the effect to the guitar volume pot eq, then depending on the amp is adjusted knob cock.

The bassman I configured differently for this test, first in quiet preamp and then rectify diode preamp gain and tube rectified, knowing that BSM recommends a maximum light crunch amp for rpa california. And a marshall has a diode rectification ...

You see that already spends more time on the amp on rpa!

SOUND QUALITY

Well, here we go, I'll update soon with a stratum and the bassman in EL84, patience.

First, it blows a lot, and single coils zonzonnent of madness, it's like Woodstock.
Today Kinman miracles, think ...

RPA produces a grain-its pretty nasty rough is better even without the cock. The sound is both clear and present, and pushes forward. Very useful to make more intelligible the bassman.
The cock is not tolerable past noon, then there are those who love them.

Bassman with calm rpa is doing not bad, the result is accurate enough overdrive-detailed but very seventies I hate this kind of sound to the sabbath and zep co, no compression in the distal.

Bassman with the gain is less, must be said that the correct tube crashed a lot, so I confirm the indications for the use of BSM.

I get better sound with clear and calm bassman pedal classicmetal ibanez, style, Yngwie richie, without rpa. Quieter too.

By the cons in that rpa classicmetal improves after a good (clear, extra grain) except for the background noise that there is really not tolerable (in singles and gain zero).

So I look better in the pedal in the amp crunch that we can say. Yet.


OVERALL OPINION

Is a test not very representative in all, mostly because of lack of strata.
The bassman diode front is not very far from a marshall in fact (Jim copied line for line eh!), For the cons alnicos 10 and 6L6 by many different cons of a 412-EL34.

I think the coup succeeded for the bsm, she brings a real plus his level. This version cloned tandem aiwa modified maxi-marshall piercing and it does nickel. It's clear!

Now there are three versions (-rpa rpa rpa Major california) and it's not nice to the constructor is extremely competent, passionate. For the choice is the sound of a particular era that order.

Personal best was the machine head, and the album was recorded in a hotel with a vox AC30 (EL84 tube and correct, not like the current) and the famous aiwa front without treble boost. Finally is the info I have, in addition to Msieu bsm. I was probably in the sandbox at the time ... and downright uh-gerous!

So I'll take the rpa simple, no vox marshall but if I want to get closer to the album.

It is clear that at 300 roros tip must be well thought eh!

So much for the moment is better than zero notice.
I am delighted with the result of tests (bassman EL84 in class a tube rectified and richie blackmore signature stratocaster japan)!
Patience! (And if you are wise, almost finally, I will put a picture of the trio!)
