SolidGoldFXBETA-V Bass Preamp Pedal

SolidGoldFX BETA-V

The SolidGoldFX BETA-V bass preamp pedal unleashes powerful bass tones—without the weight and inconvenience of a giant amp head and cabinet. This updated version of the popular Beta Series pedal is meticulously crafted to capture the warmth and rawness of beloved vintage tube amplifiers. It's all about that distinctive drive and tone that can sometimes be absent in modern bass amplification.

While we appreciate the convenience of lightweight and high-powered bass heads paired with neo cabs, there's an undeniable satisfaction that comes from the compression, clipping, and rounded character of big, vintage Ampeg-style tube amps. With the BETA-V, you get the best of both worlds—an abundance of earth-shaking mojo and user-friendly modern features.

Building upon the renowned Beta bass architecture, we've expanded its capabilities to offer a wider range of tones. The low-pass filter now provides two settings for bumped or scooped mids, along with a center bypass option for a more transparent sound. We've also reworked the Drive control to accommodate lower gain applications or hotter basses.

At the heart of the BETA-V is its active 2-band post-gain EQ, allowing you to precisely shape your highs and lows with a flat response at the center position. Whether you're seeking punchy overdriven Lemmy tones or the deepest, fattest dub vibrations, achieving your desired sound is just a few knob twists away.
