Darkglass Vintage Deluxe V3 Bass Guitar Preamp Pedal

Four decades of legendary bass tones now fit comfortably in your gig bag with the Vintage Deluxe V3. This upgraded pedal combines the warm, tube-like character of the original Microtubes Vintage with a comprehensive 4-band active EQ, Low and High mid frequency switches, parallel output and balanced line driver. The natural dynamic response and organic compression mirrors classic tube amps and tape machines, giving you authentic vintage warmth with modern versatility.

The intuitive control layout puts complete tonal shaping at your fingertips. Use the Blend knob to seamlessly mix your clean input signal with the overdriven signal for the perfect balance, while the Level and Drive controls let you adjust volume and saturation to taste. The Attack Switch provides three settings to control treble content in the saturated signal, allowing you to dial in extra clarity and presence or opt for a more subdued character.

Additional tonal flexibility comes from the Grunt Switch, which offers three bass boost levels before the clipping stage to add depth and richness to your foundation. Combined with the comprehensive Low, Low Mids, Hi Mids, and Treble controls, you have complete command over every aspect of your bass tone. The Vintage Deluxe V3 represents a significant step up for bassists seeking professional-grade tube saturation with modern EQ precision.
