• SolidGoldFX Releases New BETA-V Bass Preamp/Overdrive!

  

  2023/05/20

  SolidGoldFX releases the BETA-V, a compact bass preamp/overdrive pedal.
  In addition to independent equalizing for low and high frequencies, the LPF control allows adjustment without losing the low frequency range of the bass guitar. The LPF FREQ (low-pass filter frequency) switch can switch between Mid boost, LPF bypass, and Mid cut for instant sound creation.
  The DRIVE control can be set from gentle low gain to punchy overdrive. This pedal skillfully expresses the warm and coarse sound of vintage tube amps, and is fully capable as both a preamp and a drive pedal.

• The latest release from Ibanez is the EHB1005F-AOM, a headless and fretless bass guitar featuring a unique blue fingerboard.

  

  2023/05/18

  ■ Ibanez / EHB1005F-AOM
  
  The fretless model, "EHB1005F-AOM" from Ibanez's EHB series of headless basses designed for modern bassists, is now on the market. The Richlite fingerboard is an eco-friendly material that boasts excellent acoustic properties. It produces a gentler sound than hard fingerboard materials and works well with fretless playing. One of the most appealing features is the fingerboard's luminescent side position inlays, dyed in the Blue Canyon color. The design of this series is unique and exudes an elegant beauty that has not been seen before. In addition, the EHB body shape now has a horn back shape allowing easy access to the high frets.
  Additionally, the chambered body design adds a unique touch. You can sense the body's inner vibrations, similar to those of a hollow object. It features a monorail bridge that allows for adjustable string distance and a Vari-Mid 3-Band EQ that can be switched between active and passive modes for precise customization to match your playing style. The quantity in stock is limited as this is a SPOT production model.
