Overview - Radial Engineering Tonebone Bassbone V2 User Manual

OVERVIEW

The Bassbone V2 is a powerful two channel instrument preamp that is
able to handle all types of bass instruments and pickups depending on
how it is confi gured. Some examples include:
1. Using with one bass: When one bass is connected, the Bassbone
automatically converts to a two channel preamp. You can toggle to
channel-B and use the powerful EQ to make a vintage passive bass
sound like a modern active.
2. Using with two basses: Connecting a second instrument to the
INPUT-B jack turns the Bassbone into a two instrument preamp. You
can toggle between instruments by stomping on the footswitch.
3. Switching between upright bass and electric bass: The Bassbone
is equipped with a special PZB booster circuit that allows a passive piezo
transducer to connect directly to INPUT-2. This lets you quickly transition
from an electric bass to a piezo equipped upright bass.
Mixing two pickups: Players that use acoustic/electric basses with two
pickup systems can employ the Bassbone's unique BLEND function.
This turns both channels on and lets you mix the sound of both pickups.
