The wait is finally over! Sweetwater is stocked up with the next generation of Ashdown’s James LoMenzo bass pedal: the Mega Drive. Based on the success of the Hyper Drive, the revamped Mega Drive ups the ante by delivering a startlingly wide variety of overdrive tones for the modern bassist. On the Mega Drive, you can access a bypass mix, a drive mix, and a drive level control. These will help you nail down the perfect blend of rich harmonic distortion and sparklingly clean bass tone. Ashdown also included a sweepable highpass filter and lowpass filter to focus on specific frequencies and achieve a focused and dynamic drive tone. Plus, with the input knob, it’s easy to attain the perfect balance of the incoming instrument throughout the signal chain. All in all, this is a mega-rad bass pedal for the modern bassist requiring a focused edge and detailed harmonic controls. After all, why should guitarists get all the best pedals?
