The B7K is a limited edition Bass Preamp Pedal from Darkglass, created in conjunction with Argentine artist Ignacio Bazán Lazcano. Known for his beautiful visual work on the likes of Halo and Kong: Skull Island, Laczano has created an original piece of art which has been laser engraved onto the pedal.

Onboard you will find saturation circuity taken from the B3K and combined with a four band equaliser and a balanced line driver.

There are 6 mid frequencies available, allowing you to truly shape the tone of your bass guitar.

The pedal is limited to only 999 units in the entire world.

Enrich your bass tone with thick distortion.

With the double distortion engine (Alpha and Omega), the Alpha·Omicron delivers unparalleled versatility, harmonic rich and bone-crushing sound. Designed for bassists in need of a preamplifier to be distinctively heard in any musical context.

Blend
Mixes the clean and processed signals. The clean signal remains at unity gain while the volume of the overdriven signal is set by the Level knob, allowing for fine mix tuning.

Level
Sets the volume of the overdriven signal.

Drive
Sets the amount of gain in the overdriven signal.

Mod
Selects or mixes between the two distinct distortion circuits: Alpha is punchy, tight with a lot of definition, whereas Omega is simply brutal and raw.

Bite Switch
Boosts High Mids (2.8kHz) for additional presence and definition.

Growl Switch
Shelving Bass Boost for a fatter tone and increased low end saturation.

The Microtubes B7K takes the powerful dynamic saturation circuit of the B3K and adds a four-band equalizer and a balanced line driver for even greater versatility. The artwork of this Limited Edition was done by the talented indian illustrator Acid Toad The finish is a laser engraved natural anodized aluminum unibody.

Features
Level

Grunt Switch
Sets the amount of low frequency content to saturate by selecting between three different bass boost levels before the clipping stage.
Attack Switch
Sets the amount of treble content to saturate: The “Boost” setting emphasizes the treble content extra clarity and presence. The “Flat” position leaves this register untouched while the “Cut” position will reduce the amount of high frequencies being saturated.

The Super Intelligent Footswitch is the perfect match for our award winning Microtubes 900 Amplifier. It allows for easy access to the wide tonal options the amplifier offers: Clean channel, Vintage Microtubes and Microtubes B3K overdrives and Mute are now a stomp away.

The ‘Vintage Ultra’ is the result of the best engineering process we have accomplished. 40 years ago it was necessary to carry heavy amps in order to have a rich, powerful and ‘tight’ bass sound. Today, all you need is a super portable preamp that allows you on the one hand to have a huge clean sound and on the other hand, a tasty saturated sound.
