what does the VT1 Standard Bass sound like?

Hi Dave,

I've listened to the sound clips on your website, and I like the sound of channel 1 on the VT2 Bass (I think it was) with eq off and fat on. I can't afford to shell out that much on a pedal though, and hoped that the VT1 might produce a similar sound? Slightly milder OD might be desirable. I'm just looking to put a little valve warmth and grit in front of a solid state amp, and if possible the facility to do a raging SVT would be nice, but doesn't need to be foot switchable..

cheers for your help

Hi Matt,

The VT2 is a VT1 when in channel 1 mode. A VT2 is really 2 VT1's in the same box plus a few other features so the tone when channel 1 only is on is the same.

The gain can be set from clean to crunch on any of the VT1s and the MK3 has a extra switchable colour control that allows for very heavy compressed distortion as well.
