bear-foot-bass Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Hi - I have a Valve Tone Mrk3 and love the sound through my rig at rehearsal - its a great sounding pedal. When through the PA though there is a noticeable drop in real bottom end when I use the pedal. Any way round this? I tend to run the colour switch flat and the Ge/Si in central position.

What's wrong with using you bass amp and speakers? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
