Boss BB-1X

Image
The BOSS BB-1X Bass Driver is a premium stompbox designed to make your bass sound bold and punchy.More than just a standard compact bass pedal, the BB-1X is like a preamp, a crucial component in creating quality sound. It captures the essence and subtle nuances of your bass, amp, and playing and emphasizes all their best characteristics.

Incorporating BOSS’ latest MDP technology, the BB-1X delivers a wide range of superior sounds, from natural clean tones to heavy distortion. It adapts and responds to any playing style or register, but never loses the body and core tone of your instrument. The BB-1X’s natural-sounding distortion preserves the high definition and dynamics reflected in the finest details of your sound.

The BB-1X provides a clear sonic outline to enhance your sound, yet never muffles your low end. With the Blend knob, you can easily adjust your tone by mixing the direct signal with the effect sound. Low, High, and Drive knobs offer an extremely wide range of sound creation. These controls not only shape the frequencies, but change the characteristics of the tone as well. The Line Out jack on the BB-1X goes beyond a standard DI out, providing a newly crafted and enhanced direct sound for reaching larger audiences through a PA system. The “1X� in the BB-1X’s name represents the pedal’s premium look, sound, and feel. Whether you’re defining your standard tone or spicing up your sound for soloing, the BB-1X Bass Driver is a must-have for every modern bassist.

Boss FV-30H & FV-30L

Image
The FV-30H and FV-30L are compact foot volume pedals with kickin’ new designs. They’ve been specially created for saving space on your pedalboard while maintaining the trusted BOSS standard for sound quality, reliability, and durability. These pedals are 100-percent professional grade, aluminum die-cast units, and feature smooth pivot action that supports subtle changes in volume control. Thanks to their small size, the FV-30H and FV-30L offer a huge advantage for traveling musicians and gigging players who need to maximize pedalboard space.

As with the other models in the FV series, two different pedal versions allow you to choose the best type for your specific application:

FV-30H—A high-impedance pedal (with dedicated tuner output) that’s best for connecting directly to an electric guitar or bass.

FV-30L—A low-impedance pedal equipped with stereo input/output for stompboxes, keyboards, and other digital instruments.

The ES-8 looks like it might be interesting (although the demo doesn't give too much away):

When you press the accelerator past halfway it doesn’t actually go any faster, but the engine noise distorts

Holy shit. They want £499 for that ES-8 thing.

That's considerably more than something like the GT-100, which actually includes the effects themselves.

Shame, was looking for something like that but probably not at that price...

Yeah, me too. Hoping it is a misprint or the retailer has jumped the gun or something.
