Boss FBM-1 Fender '59 Bassman Effects Pedal at a Glance:
Classic Bassman tone in a stompbox The Fender '59 Bassman is far and away one of the classic amps, and having that sought-after tone in a stompbox is truly a marvel. Created as a bass amp, guitarists quickly latched onto the Bassman for its beefy tones. From chunky rhythm tones to smooth solos, the FBM-1 faithfully delivers the sound and response of the Bassman. Great as a pre-gain pedal for Fender tonal color The coolest thing about the FBM-1 is that it can work with any amp to add Fender color to your tone. No matter what you play through, the FBM-1 will deliver a touch of the Bassman sound to your signal. Plus, the Bright In input can be used to creat a brighter tone, similar to the original Bassman.

Very nice vintage tone. Built like a tank like most BOSS pedals. Good sound with tweaking controls on box and amp. I run through a Epiphone Blues Custom 30 all tube amp with Stratocaster and Epi.

by RockinVic from Ssan Jose, Ca
This is a great pedal overall. Use it to character your amp, not drive it. The overdrive to me sounds a bit muddy.June 10, 2009 Music Background: Pro musician, recording engineer I own a a 59' Bassman Reissue and a Epiphone Valve Jr. ... read more [+]For some small club gigs, I use the bassman. When i do bigger shows, i actually use the Valve JR. the FBM-1 is great because it allows me to character my Valve Jr. to sound very similar to my bassman. Then i use a boss Blues Driver to actually drive in my leads. here is my pedal set up FBM-1-->BD2-->Danelectro Reel Echo-->PT-13 tuner The FBM-1 will definitely get you close to the sound of a real Bassman, you just need to learn to EQ it and you will be fine. close [-] a great stompbox!

Carson McClainIf you owned a Bassman back years ago and want to get the closest thing to it, but in a pedal, get this. This is the perfect compliment to a jazz, blues, or classic rock guitar rig. Also popular
