Retrofier Bass Glow from namn

Sounds pretty dang good. I was looking for this type of OD vs the over-the-top full out distortion. I was able to find it w/ an Ampeg Scrambler, which I'm very happy with. Downside to the above pedal is $$ and size, won't fit my small pedal board.

I can see where it could hit a players sweet spot though.

Impressive! The electric guitar version sounds amazing.

I'm fine with the price and size, provided it needs to be that large.

Not keen on the 12v requirement though. Would prefer using a standard 9v supply and if need be he could've boosted voltage internally.

I believe an input trim is a must-have on any such pedal, so basses with hot output don't fuzz out a bit too much with greater dynamics.

I'm wondering if actually runs at 24v aka 12v with voltage doubler.. I have a flatliner six that is isolated with 9-12-15-18v on each output so power isn't a concern
