Designed with indie pedal phenom and Fuzzrocious Pedals founder Ryan Ratajski, this little box gives you all the big gnarly tones and low end you could ever want.

MXR took a famously nasty sounding distortion circuit and re-tooled it for the modern working bass player. Dry and Wet level controls let you set the perfect mix for your sonic needs, while the Tone control cuts the distortion signal’s top end and the Distortion control sets the distortion signal’s intensity.

MXR

In the current JustPedals catalogue, MXR is represented by Overdrive Pedals, Compressor Pedals and Chorus Pedals. Current listings include Bass Synth, M300 Reverb and M307 Layers. That makes the range relevant to players looking for drive, gain and clipping, plus time-based effects and ambience. Check each model for its exact circuit or processing platform, controls, power requirements and connections, particularly where the catalogue includes both pedals and supporting gear.

Distortion Pedals

Distortion pedals use stronger or more deliberate clipping than a typical overdrive, adding harmonics, compression and sustain. Some are voiced for amp-like crunch, others for high-gain rhythm or a deliberately abrasive texture. Gain, tone, presence, resonance and output controls determine how the pedal interacts with the amplifier and pickups; a blend or noise gate can preserve clarity in heavier settings. Placement changes the result, so check whether the design is intended to push an amp, run into a clean platform or feed a direct cabinet simulation.

Bass

Bass products are designed or voiced to retain low-frequency information and usable headroom with bass guitar or other low-register sources. Controls may centre on clean blend, low-end EQ, compression, crossover points or drive character. A guitar pedal can sometimes work well on bass, but it may remove the fundamental or compress the transient. Check the frequency response, input impedance, output level and dry-signal path with the intended tuning and amplifier.
