B-Pro v.2

Mid-gain push-drive pedal for bass – $299.99

The B-Pro is the answer to requests from touring and session players alike for a SWELL drive pedal that blends both the B-Drive and B-TOD together into one mid-gain push-drive pedal.

The Pro’s customized SWELL TONE CIRCUIT delivers big round lows, natural sounding mids and a smooth open top end.

In addition the B-Pro doesn’t play favorites when it comes to pickups…single-coil or humbucker, passive and active – the PRO brings out the best in all of them.

As with all SWELL drives the B-Pro has smooth natural compression, rich complex overtones and is fundamentally transparent with NO loss of low-end frequencies.

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.

And yes–the Pro remains 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.

On stage and in the studio the B-Pro will inspire!
