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 '64 Black Panel overdrive and preamp pedal pays tribute to the iconic mid-'60s Fender® Showman® and Bassman® amps along with their 2×15" cabs — in compact form!

Iconic Fender® Tones

Before the days of the modern, portable bass amp; Fender's high-powered Showman® and Bassman® heads were relied on heavily by bassists of all genres — from soul to rock ‘n’ roll. More than 50 years later, many musicians firmly believe that these early bass tones remain some of the best ever, and the BassRIG ’64 Black Panel delivers all the warmth and grit that define this boundary-pushing era, but in a far more portable package.

Detailed Sound

The BassRIG '64 Black Panel 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.

Overdrive Pedals

Overdrive pedals add warmth, grit and amplifier-like breakup to your guitar tone. They can be used as a light always-on tone enhancer, a bluesy crunch box, a mid-focused solo boost or a way to push a valve amp into richer saturation.

Different overdrive circuits have very different personalities, from transparent low-gain pedals to classic mid-hump designs and heavier modern drives. They are one of the most important pedal types because they respond to picking dynamics, guitar volume and the character of your amplifier.

Preamp & Amp Sim Pedals,

Amp and cab simulator pedals recreate the sound and response of guitar amplifiers, speaker cabinets and microphones in a compact pedal format. They are useful for recording direct, practising silently, running straight into a PA, or building a pedalboard that does not rely on a traditional amp.

Many amp and cab sims include different amplifier voices, impulse responses, EQ controls and headphone outputs. They are a strong choice for modern guitarists who need consistent tone at home, in the studio and on stage without carrying heavy amplifiers and speaker cabinets.
