Origin Effects are a leading guitar and bass pedal brand, renowned for the quality and sound of their products which use best-in-class components. Their BassRIG Super Vintage overdrive and preamp pedal is designed to recreate the bombastic tone of the iconic Ampeg® SVT® bass amp and its gargantuan 8×10" speaker cabinet — in compact form!

Legendary SVT® Tone

Released in 1969, the SVT® was one of the first high-powered bass amps available and it remains a popular choice among the some of the biggest names in the business. It's famously known for sounding absolutely huge — with incredible low-end depth, a versatile control-set and a growling distortion when cranked.

But of course, an Ampeg® SVT® is notoriously difficult to transport! That's why the Origin Effects BassRIG Super Vintage is a no-brainer for the contemporary player after that coveted Ampeg® sound; harnessing every nuance of the SVT® but in a far more portable package.

Detailed Sound

The BassRIG Super Vintage features an entire valve amp circuit recreated in miniature form — to yield that organic analogue tone. It boasts all of the controls you need to precisely craft the perfect bass amp tone, with a powerful 'Blend' knob that adds in your clean, unaffected signal to preserve clarity and low-end punch.

The XLR-equipped DI output’s analogue cabinet simulator provides a massive sound direct to your mixing console, while the ¼” output features Origin Effects' proprietary 'Amp Out' EQ. This post-drive filter ensures compatibility with any amp and cab, which means that you never have to compromise your clean tone or struggle with the house backline.
