For years bassists have combined guitar and bass amps to remarkable eect, adding harmonics and layers
of overdrive from a guitar amp to their core bass tone in pursuit of the ulmate live sound. Taking our
inspiraon from this ‘bi amping’ trend, the OB1 Series takes care- of this and more besides, with its unique
Blend and Gain circuit. The result is a - sound, without the hassle of taking two rigs to the show. ‘bi amped’
The OB1 splits the input signal two completely separate paths. One side amplies the clean signal, whilst
the other adds up to two stages of controllable gain to the upper register. These two elements can then be
combined using the Blend control The low end remains warm and punchy, whilst the overall tone is .
enhanced with addional harmonic content from the Gain circuit. Dial in anything from everything from
fat cleans to heavy grind, and everywhere in between.
