The BD-1™ is not a variant of any existing product but an entirely new and original design. Initially designed for Bass Guitar, the BD-1™ has also proved very popular with Baritone Guitars and dropped tuned Guitars when heavy overdrive is required at the lower frequencies of these instruments. With Germanium components for added musicality, this new design features full Bottom-End retention and is flat down to below the bottom B on five string basses.

The tone controls are very powerful and feature an active boost and cut with a combined range of 34dB at maximum settings. Being active, the two-tone bands can be both cut and boosted as desired, with the zero or neutral point being 12 o'clock on each control knob. I have included a second linear boost stage after the tone circuit to compensate for any reduction in overall volume when the tones are in “cut” mode.

The benefits of this active tone circuit, compared to the usual passive (Cut only) tone circuit, is that the two bands are completely independent and there is no interaction between the Bass and Treble tone controls. An output Master Volume is included to allow for perfect matching between bypassed and overdriven and EQ’d signal level and there is plenty of signal headroom available to overdrive amp inputs if required.

My well established Class A input buffer and radio frequency suppressor are, of course, included and the output buffer impedance is low to easily drive long cables or other loads without loss of signal or tone.

Our low noise discrete component Class A pre-amplifier has been specifically designed to overcome the problems often encountered with amplification of Electric Instruments fitted with magnetic transducers.

A frequent cause of these problems is the mismatch of the impedance in the electrical circuit between the pickup and subsequent equipment: this mismatch has been completely eliminated with the introduction of our LD-1™ Line Driver.

The input impedance is identical to a high quality tube amplifier and our Class A Pre-amplifier also features a highly effective RF filter which will help prevent interference from nearby radio transmitters.

The LP-2™ has been designed to be used with any guitar or bass effects pedal or device that needs a boost or cut when activated. The external pedal connected to the SEND/RETURN must be permanently "ON" as it will be bypassed by the Footswitch in the LP-2™(LED off). For example, it can be used to compliment the early Electro Harmonix Electric Mistress™ pedal, which has an inherent loss of output when in Flange mode.

The LP-2™ INPUT features our world class unit gain buffer and line driver type LD-1™. The SEND is isolated and ground lifted. The RETURN features our well established variable gain stage with gain variation from -16dB to 0dB (unity) to +16dB. The footswitch alternates between bypass (LED off) and loop (LED on) and in active mode the RETURN signal from the external effects pedal is sent to the OUTPUT with any boostor cut that has been added by the RETURN GAIN control. No gain boost is applied to the SEND feed, which is at guitar level and so should not be used for signal matching to Line Level equipment such as rack effects etc.
