Trickfish Overdrive Preamp: The Smooth Bass Overdrive Pedal

Retain the Lows. Define the Grit.

In the world of bass effects, finding an overdrive that provides rich saturation without sacrificing the fundamental low-end tone is essential.

The Trickfish Overdrive Preamp is engineered specifically to answer that need. It is a premium bass overdrive pedal that focuses on smooth, musical soft clipping and unparalleled tonal control.

If you are a bassist searching for a high-quality dirt pedal that maintains clarity, punch, and the entire dynamic range of your instrument, this bass overdrive with clean blend is your definitive solution for adding character without compromise.

Blended Dirt and Precision Tonal Control

The Trickfish Overdrive Preamp stands out by offering critical studio-grade features in a gig-ready stompbox.

The Clean Blend Advantage

• Preserve Your Foundation: The key to this pedal’s superior sound is the dedicated BLEND knob. This feature allows you to mix your dry, clean signal back in with the overdriven effect, ensuring that the low-end definition of your bass always remains solid and unaffected—a critical feature for any bass overdrive with clean blend.
• Smooth, Musical Clipping: The circuit delivers a pleasing soft clipping overdrive that moves from creamy, touch-sensitive sparkle to full-on saturated distortion, providing versatility for any genre.
• Low-End Integrity: Unlike many guitar overdrives adapted for bass, the Trickfish Overdrive is voiced to retain the fullness of the low end throughout the entire dynamic range of your instrument.

Surgical EQ on the Fly

• Onboard 3-Band EQ: This versatile bass overdrive pedal includes an onboard 3-Band EQ with dedicated controls for Bass (80Hz), Mid (1.5kHz), and Treble (4.8kHz). This allows you to perfectly tailor the tone to sit in any mix.
• Highly Adjustable Tone Shaping: The EQ section follows the overdrive circuit, giving you the power to perfectly shape the frequency of the "wet" signal, ensuring your distorted tone has the presence and warmth it needs.

Rugged Build and Simple Use

• Road Ready: Built with a sturdy steel chassis, this bass overdrive with clean blend is designed for the rigors of the pedalboard and frequent gigging.
• Intuitive Controls: The pedal features simple, responsive controls (Gain, Blend, Output, and the 3-Band EQ) that allow you to quickly dial in your signature grit and get back to playing.
