Double Bass Fdeck hpf pre series 3

Hi. The LED is designed to only give a very brief "flash" when you plug something into the output jack. The "flash" means "at least one more gig."

The effect can be subtle. How I casually test it: Dial up the low end on your amp. Strum all of your strings. While they ring, turn the frequency knob back and forth. You should hear a kind of "vroom vroom" effect, almost like a bassy wah-wah pedal.

If still no success after trying these things, PM me and we'll take it from there.
