One of the interesting things about the Bassman
®
is just how interactive the
Middle and Treble controls are. The Middle control isn’t a bandpass, as in
most tone control setups. Instead, it’s almost like a second treble control. The
two are additive, so if you’re running your Middle knob higher than halfway
up with this model, you’ll nd that the Treble control might give you more
bright than you really want. On the other hand, when you turn the Middle
knob down, you’ll probably want to boost the Treble.
The Bassman
®
, like many of the amps modeled for POD Farm 2, didn’t have
a master volume. So to get the kind of tone that the Bassman
®
can deliver at
higher gain settings, you had to crank it up loud enough to do some serious
damage to anyone who might be standing close by. Now you can get that kind
of tone at a bedroom or studio level - or even through your headphones! Try
a Drive setting of about 4 or 5 - it’s guaranteed to dredge up the best R & B licks you know.
