The BASSRIG Fifteen is an all-analogue amp recreation, based on the legendary Ampeg® B-15 Portaflex® amplifier. Introduced in the early 1960s, the B-15 was the first dedicated bass combo amp and is still highly sought after today, with its low output power and unique cab making it the perfect choice for the studio. While its signature warm clean tones and subtle overdrive are synonymous with the sound of ‘60s soul records, it’s at home in any genre that calls for a vintage bass tone. The BASSRIG Fifteen recreates the sound, feel and character of this timeless bass rig. Familiar, responsive controls let you dial in instantly recognizable retro studio tones, while the BLEND control adds in clean signal for low-end clarity and extra articulation. An all-analogue cabinet simulation from the DI OUT make the BASSRIG Fifteen the perfect direct recording tool or direct-to-PA preamp, and the powerful AMP OUT EQ tailors the voicing of the pedal to suit any backline amp. Vintage bass tones are still relevant today but modern rigs are very different, so the BASSRIG Fifteen gives you all the warmth and character of the B-15’s 1×15 cab from the cabinet-simulated DI OUT. This super-accurate analogue filter gives you a studio or stage-ready DI tone that will fit right into any mix. Flexible switching on the DI OUT lets the BASSRIG Fifteen double up as a clean DI, a cab sim for other preamps, or an unfiltered preamp ready to pair with your favorite IR loader. For players hooking the BASSRIG Fifteen up to an amp, the AMP OUT EQ offers a comprehensive set of controls aimed at matching the pedal’s tone to the voicing of their amp and cab. Need to give your modern, lightweight stack the unique response of a B-15 cab? These controls can do it. Just kicking the BASSRIG Fifteen on for driven passages and need it to sit with your clean tone? We’ve got you covered. The AMP OUT EQ is a lifeline when changing backline rigs, balancing clean and drive, and matching your on-stage sound to your DI tone. Built with Origin's usual attention to detail, premium quality components and rugged stainless steel enclosure, the BASSRIG Fifteen brings B-15 goodness to any studio, stage or stadium.
