Description
The 800JP (previously 800TS) preamp borrows the EQ section of the famous GK800RB amplifier and squeezes it into an onboard preamp, loaded into a Jazz-plate, for you Jazz bass lovers.
This tone stack has some serious high-frequency power and a very deep bottom end, just like the amplifier it’s based on, allowing you to explore different tones directly from your instrument.
The Hi-mid and Treble controls are highly interactive; the same goes for the Lo-Mid and Bass controls and the overall sound is always very “cut through” and clear sounding. A new function, the Contour switch, allows to add a Pre-shape (V) EQ to the sound.
