Description

here at Just Pedals we love this Fender Downtown Express Bass Multi Effect Pedal.

Who says that bassists always get the short straw? Fender has put together an all-encompassing tone-machine to give Bass players something to get excited about.

Combining overdrive, compression and a 3-band EQ the Downtown Express Bass Pedal solves a common nuance in the bass guitar world. Good quality effects in one, easy to use unit. This pedal is described by Fender as a one-stop shop for bass tone-shaping, giving you everything you need for killer tone. Not to mention that it looks super stylish, includes a tuner output for convenience and has switchable LEDs, as found on all of Fender’s latest pedals.

Built with all types of players in mind, the pedal has a built in mute switch for silent tuning and a direct output making it easy to integrate into any rig, home, stage or studio.

Perhaps our favourite feature from Fender is that they’ve included a switch that lets you reorder the compressor and overdrive circuits to taste. This means that you can use the Downtown Express Pedal without worrying about the impact on your existing setup. It’s totally flexible to suit your own style, taste and preference.

This pedal has been designed by Alex Aguilar and is an all-original Fender circuit. The chassis is crafted from lightweight, durable anodized aluminium, and the LED-backlit knobs show your control settings on a dark stage at a glance. Tried and tested by musicians, this piece of equipment is stage ready right out the box, and we’ll think you’ll love it!

Here's what Fender say about the Downtown Express

Your one-stop shop for bass tone-shaping, the Downtown Express bass multi-effect puts everything you need for killer bass tone right at your feet. All the bass essentials are there—compressor, 3-band EQ and overdrive—each switchable on its own, or you can use the Mute switch to kill the signal for silent tuning. The Direct Output makes it easy to integrate this pedal into any performance situation—stage or studio. We recognize that a truly powerful signal chain needs to be flexible, so we included a switch that lets you reorder the compressor and overdrive circuits to taste.

Designed by Alex Aguilar, the Downtown Express is an all-original Fender circuit. To ensure this pedal is performance-ready we let musicians kick it around, took their feedback to heart and refined it. The chassis is crafted from lightweight, durable anodized aluminum, and the LED-backlit knobs show your control settings on a dark stage at a glance.

Use the Downtown Express on your next gig or session and add some rumble to your rig.

Bass

In the realm of guitar effects, “bass” pedals are designed specifically for bass guitars, enhancing their low-end frequencies and allowing bassists to shape their tone and explore new sonic possibilities. These pedals cater to the unique characteristics of the bass guitar and provide various effects to modify its sound. For instance, overdrive and distortion pedals add gain and saturation, giving the bass a gritty or distorted tone. Compression pedals help even out dynamics by smoothing out the volume of loud and soft notes, resulting in a consistent and punchy sound. EQ pedals enable bassists to sculpt their tone by boosting or cutting specific frequencies, allowing them to emphasize certain parts of the sound or compensate for room acoustics.

Other popular bass effects include envelope filters, which produce dynamic filter sweeps in response to playing dynamics, adding rhythmic groove to bass lines. Octave pedals generate harmonies one or two octaves below the original note, creating a fuller and more powerful sound. Modulation effects like chorus, flanger, and phaser add depth and movement by modulating the pitch or phase, creating swirling textures and enhancing the overall presence of the bass line. Lastly, delay and reverb pedals introduce ambience and spatial depth, adding echoes and reflections that enhance the sense of space in music. These diverse effects allow bassists to expand their sonic palette and express their creativity in numerous ways.

Multi

A multi-effects pedal is a versatile device used by musicians, particularly guitarists and bassists, that combines multiple effects and signal processing features into a single unit.

It allows players to access a range of effects—such as reverb, delay, distortion, chorus, and more—without needing to use multiple separate pedals.

Multi-effects units typically offer a variety of preset and programmable options, enabling musicians to create and save complex effect combinations and signal chains tailored to their specific needs.

These pedals often include features like digital amp modelling, built-in tuners, and other utilities, providing an all-in-one solution for both practice and performance.

Multi-effects pedals can streamline setups, reduce pedalboard clutter, and offer extensive flexibility in shaping sound.

They are popular among musicians for their convenience, comprehensive capabilities, and the ability to experiment with different tones and effects in a single device.

Pedal

A pedal is an electronic device that alters the sound of an electric guitar by applying various effects. Pedals are typically connected in a series between the guitar and amplifier, allowing guitarists to switch effects on and off with their feet while playing.

This enables musicians to quickly and easily change their sound, adding versatility and creativity to their performances.

Pedals are essential tools in many musical genres, including rock, blues, jazz, and metal, allowing artists to craft distinctive and dynamic soundscapes.
