The Hartke Bass Attack Pedal is a tone-shaping pre-amp that doubles as a direct box, featuring the famous Hartke Shape Circuitry taken from the 3000 and 4000 amplifiers.
The two-button style stomp box has a three band EQ for adjustments of Bass, Treble, and Bright controls, plus a Harmonic control that emulates the warmth and drive of a tube so well that you’ll never want to turn it off. The Hartke Bass Attack Pedal gives you the ability to finally get the sound you want, and everything in between.
A wealth of I/O connections means that the Bass Attack can be integrated into almost any setup. An XLR Output, switchable between post/pre EQ provides a DI feed straight into a mixer or recorder; the Parallel Output provides the feed to the backline amplifier , but when used in conjection with the Line Output can also double as a second input, allowing the Bass Attack to be used as an FX loop for external effects when recording.
Power options are extensive with either a 9v battery, optional PSU or Phantom Power via the XLR providing the juice.
