It is based off of a 1973 Matamp Preamp. It was popular for its distortion but mainly for guitar players.
On guitar it is definitely excellent but an acquired taste but on Bass it is to die for!
The layout has the usual volume, treble, bass and drive ...but it also has presence and a bass boost. The presence adds a really nice edge to a bass and the bass boost gives you enough punch
to take the walls out.
Most dirt pedals for bass are a Fuzz. They get tiresome quickly.
For some guys they will set this up right in the sweet spot and never turn it off all night.
I wouldn't blame them. This thing ROCKS!!
It is only $160.00 USD
if any of the big boys
sold it it would easily be
$325.00 USA
The first thing a bass player thinks when it comes to any FX.
Is it even usable??? Or is it a gimmicky toy!!! Great for Hollywood Special FX guy but ....
Does it take hours to set up or learn and will I have to write special bass lines to even use it?
So the first thing you say after trying other pedals in the past it is ..."W.T.F.!!!!
Am I right or am I right? Damn right I'm right!!!
NOT with the GT73
You just plug it in and a few turns of the knobs and you are ready to go.
It is easy to get synth like sounds ...or just set it up to give your bass
more girth and punch!
I have never heard such a massive bass sound. DEAD COOL!!
Once again the guy is giving it away!
TO BE FAIR!
Not my thing but hundreds of guitar players have this pedal.
No doubt many play better then me. LOL
So check it out!
