Darkglass Microtubes B1K Distortion Mini Pedal Reviews
The Microtubes B1K Distortion Mini Pedal may be Darkglass’ smallest pedal yet, but it’s packed with the same brutal distortion aggression of its larger siblings! Sporting a no-nonsense control scheme with a single concentric Level/Drive knob, the Microtubes B1K is a pocket-sized pedal that delivers the Microtubes' crushing all-analog distortion tone, without even a hint of compromise. Inside the pedal, the Tone and Blend controls are easily accessible; however, Sweetwater bassists find that the B1K’s magic lies in how it functions as an always-on pedal, forming the core of your bass tone. Small, simple, and straightforward: the Microtubes B1K Distortion is the perfect choice for bass players looking to inject some legendary Microtubes ferocity into their rig!

Darkglass B1k
This pedal is killer. You have a ton of room for adjusting tone. This is the first OD pedal I've owned that work for every bass I can throw at it. Andrew is awesome and helped out so much. Get this pedal!
Super simple, does what I wanted it for.
Arrived 3 hours before tonight's practice. Just enough time to sort it out. I replaced my Alpha Omega Ultimate to allow me to downsize my pedal board one size. I sounds really good. One note: the pedal came with both growl and mid boast engage (dip switches underneith) and the blend at 100% and the tone all the way to ones side) So once I adjusted the blend to more like 40% it was right where I wanted. One thing I would LOVE to see changed: a Set screw on the two top dials, allowing you to lock it at a setting. Once again Darkglass earns my love!
