Overdrive effect pedal for electric bass, based on the Plumes Small Signal Shredder, Blumes.
- Overdrive effect with deep bass tones
- Dual gain compared to the Plumes
- 3 saturation modes: symmetrical LED, asymmetrical silicon, and diode-free boost
- True Bypass
- Made in the USA
Blumes is a fully analog three-mode bass overdrive with smooth clipping that inherits the classic Screamer circuit but with its own voice. While it incorporates most of the features of our appreciated Plumes Small Signal Shredder, this modified circuit doubles the gain and offers a deeper bass response to preserve all the low-end frequencies.
It uses an internal bipolar power supply, providing greater dynamics and all the headroom you could desire. The end result is a three-dimensional sound with increased clarity that truly pushes a good tube amplifier to its limits.
