Benson: Preamp – On Bass | Amateur Effects Reviews
Hi I’m Theo.
I play bass, often poorly. I love effects and started this channel as a way to document what I’ve owned.
On this channel we look at bass effects pedals, Bass VI, pedal combinations and getting specific tones.
Go check out my other channel where I focus on using effects designed for guitar on bass:

thats the sound
I tried the Benson preamp directly into a QSC power amp, and played a stock Fender P bass through it. The Benson sounds terrible in my opinion as a stand alone preamp. The overdrive was soft and the EQ was barely noticeable, especially the bass control. I'm sure this sounds great when used in front of a bass amp, but IMO not as a stand alone preamp to couple with a power amp.
Very good… nice video and review
Great tone!
When you engaged it, do you get a lot of background noise, like white noise?
Cheers!
Wow, I was not expecting to like the sound on bass! Some very useable tones that sound actually better than some "bass overdrives" out there!
Sounds awsome !good job Man!
