B-Max v.2
High-gain push drive pedal for bass – $299.99
The B-Max is an aggressive, modern voiced compact and easy to use mid-gain push-drive pedal from SWELL.
Fundamentally transparent, smooth natural compression and with NO loss of low-end frequencies the B-Max recreates the complex overtones found in classic tube amps.
Focused lows in addition to a smooth top-end the Max muscles amps over the edge and into submission.
Select between Drive’s 1 & 2 for the just the right amount of gain and the NEW Boost remote jack (another SWELL 1st) gives you unparalleled control of your signal level with any simple latching on/off footswitch.
All of this while remaining dead-quiet even with the output level control maxed out!
From your home Studio to the stage cranked amp tone and feel at any volume level via Amp and/or Record outs.
Max your TONE with the B-Max!
