Bass Hog
Attention, bassists! The Stephenson Bass Hog is a game-changer in the world of bass amplification. Derived from the legendary Stage Hog, this all-tube powerhouse was designed exclusively for low-end lovers, delivering a vintage-inspired tone that will have your bandmates begging to borrow it. At its heart, the Bass Hog is a 1-watt tube amplifier that can double as both a practice amp and a tone-shaping pedal. Plug it into any bass cabinet, and you've got a portable, high-quality practice rig. But where the Bass Hog really shines is when used as a pedal – its line out can be connected directly to your main bass amp, imbuing your sound with a rich, harmonically-complex distortion that's perfect for modern rock, metal, and even funk. The real magic lies in the Bass Hog's controls. The power scale master volume allows you to dial in the perfect amount of power tube saturation, from a subtle crunch to a full-on wall of gain. Meanwhile, the voice, mid, and bright switches let you shape your tone, taking you from a dark, vintage-inspired growl to a focused, cutting high-end. And with the included remote footswitch, you can seamlessly toggle between bypass and boost modes, right from your pedalboard. Whether you're looking to fatten up your bass tone or just want a killer practice amp, the Stephenson Bass Hog is a must-have for any discerning low-end enthusiast. Rumor has it that legendary bassist Victor Wooten has been spotted using one on tour – need we say more?
