Bjorn's Description:

The Challenge
The biggest challenge to overcome was the fact that guitarists and bassists feel things differently. While they pursue the best sound on the same ground,they do it in different ways. Understanding what they visualize was the toughest challenge for us. This pedal can intuitively reproduce the sound that bassists feel and imagine in their heads. This pedal is a milestone for One Control.

The tone you imagine manifests itself in this pedal.

What does the “distortion effect” mean for bassists? They naturally have different ideas depending on their style of play and genre. Yet, bass distortion effect pedals, especially overdrive pedals, are thought to be an extension of an amp simulator/preamp or onboard active preamp.

In order to fulfill the functions of both an amp and a bass, bass overdrive pedals tend to be multi-functional and large in size due to an increased number of knobs and terminals. Pedal boards are getting larger, even more so recently. Distortion and various other effects can be used effectively to add color to music. Now, more than ever, bass overdrive effects need casual usability like a guitar overdrive.

One Control Hooker's Green Bass Machine embodies everything bassists need in its small body from the bass amp features to tone and deep feelings.

The Sound
Bass tube amps are essential for an old school rock sound. Nothing can beat the controllable tones and feelings they create. Hooker's Green Bass Machine gives you the tone and feeling of bass tube amps and old transistor amps when used with a modern bass transistor amp, which is common in many music venues and studios. When Hooker's Green Bass Machine is not in use, you can get a modern transistor amp sound. By combining a modern transistor amp that is most commonly used by contemporary bassists and this small Hooker’s Green Bass Machine, you can cover all the bass amp sounds that many bassists seek.

Hooker's Green Bass Machine has a dynamic range as wide as a bass tube amp and picks up all the subtle expressions that bassists create with their fingers. Transitions between clean and distorted sounds are smooth and it creates a gorgeous but stable compression tone like an old transistor amp when you increase the distortion.
