Tech 21 VT Bass

I received this morning the long awaited Tech 21 VT Bass! I was about to order a classic Sansamp RBI but I had to try the VT Bass! For The Field Where She Died, I recorded my bass through my Jstation plugged into my Joemeek preamp. I searched for a long time my own sound, kind of tube sound with a lot of medium and some overdrive, which came from the Jstation. I was quite satisfied by my sound but I wanted to improve it somehow, the good news is the VT Bass sounds far better and it’s simpler to use than my previous setup! Its overdrive is really beautiful and the “character” knob makes this pedal really versatile! I can’t wait to work on the next songs with this new tool!!

From Tech 21: The tower of power pumping through a stack of 10-inchers is the legendary bass tone for players who enjoy being heard. From chunky funk with the ubiquitous flip top, to the higher gain growl of indie rock. Still need more? Lean on the Character control for the fat distortion of Crimson and King’s X. It all sounds massive DI. Clean SVT® thump to dirty earthquaking rump, you dial it in.
