DARKGLASS ELECTRONICS UNLEASHES THE MICROTUBES B7K ULTRA KRAKEN LIMITED EDITION How do you make the best bass pedal on the market even better? You collaborate with Ignacio Bazán to create graphics that perfectly complement the circuit enclosed therein. The Microtubes B7K Ultra gives you a generous four-band EQ along with a distortion circuit, clean blend, numerous switching options and bass-friendly additions such as a DI out. KEELEY ELECTRONICS ONE- UPS THEMSELVES WITH THE COMPRESSOR PLUS If there’s one effect Robert Keeley knows inside and out, it’s compression. The Compressor Plus might be his best take yet. Featuring a Blend control that blends your dry signal in with your compressed signal, the Plus makes itself infinitely more versatile than its predecessor. The Plus model also offers a central toggle switch adapts the pedal to either single coils or humbuckers. BSM UNVEILS THE RMG BOOSTER Based on the vintage Vox Treble and Bass Boost circuit from the ‘60s, the BSM RMG seeks to replicate the sound of Roger McGuinn of the Byrds. The lone jangle knob unleashes a highly versatile tone control that changes genre as well as tone. The RMG is also engineered to work very well with solid- state amps, making it one of the only boost pedals to do so. ToneReport.com 23
