Details: Maxon’s first overdrive designed specifically for bass guitar, the BD10 offers an articulate distortion that can be blended with clean signal for a variety of saturated tones. The BD10 works equally well with Guitar to create a full-bodied overdrive as well as clean/dirty amp simulations.The BD10 Hybrid Bass Driver brings Maxon’s 40+ years of experience in Overdrive design to the world of the Bass Guitar.

He required an overdrive that could keep up with this energetic playing style while still retaining low-end punch and authority.The BD10’s symmetrical clipping path provides sustained, harmonically-rich saturation that retains note clarity and expressiveness even at maximum settings.

Distorted sounds can then be blended with Dry signal using the independent Clean and Drive Level controls.Fine tuning the balance between Clean and Distorted signals, the user can obtain the ideal mix for their particular playing style and equipment.

Clean signal can be boosted up to +6 dB above unity gain, allowing the DB10 to be
