B-Drive - Lo-Gain Drive for Bass
Hear the rich, organic tones of yesteryear with the Swell Pedals B-Drive - a compact, no-frills overdrive built specifically for bassists. Inspired by the sought-after "small amp" tones that defined American rock and country in the 1960s, the B-Drive delivers a thick, creamy gain that's perfect for thickening up your bass sound or pushing your amp into satisfying saturation. The secret lies in the B-Drive's all-analog circuitry, centered around a 12AU7 vacuum tube that adds harmonically-complex warmth to your low end. Dial in the perfect amount of grit with the Drive control, then use the Blend knob to mix in just the right amount of clean signal for a dynamic, touch-responsive feel. The Tone control allows you to shape your high-end, taming fizz or boosting presence as needed. But the B-Drive isn't just about overdrive - it also features a switchable Amp/Record output, allowing you to send your overdriven tones straight to the mixing desk for pristine recording, or hit the front of your amplifier for that raw, cranked-up vibe. Handmade in the USA with premium components, this pedal is built to last a lifetime of stage and studio use. Whether you're a bassist craving vintage American attitude or a guitarist looking to fatten up your low end, the Swell Pedals B-Drive delivers the perfect balance of touch-sensitive gain and classic, tube-driven tone.
