The Sadowsky SBP-1 Bass Preamp offers bassists the same electronics that have been built into every Sadowsky bass for over 30 years. With the flexible combination of preamp and DI box, the pedal can be used in the effects setup in front of the amplifier or to connect your bass directly to a mixer or the PA. The control options are kept simple with Volume, Treble and Bass, Treble and Bass only work as a boost.
