BASSRIG Super Vintage

The BASSRIG Super Vintage by Origin Effects is an all-analogue amp recreation and overdrive pedal, designed to replicate the iconic Ampeg SVT valve bass amp and its legendary sound. Here are the technical specifications and features:

- Complete valve amp-style signal path with dedicated class-A preamp and push-pull output stage, based on the Ampeg SVT
- Balanced DI output with analogue cabinet simulator based on the Ampeg SVT 8x10 cabinet
- Reactive design simulates interaction between amp and speaker for realistic feel and authentic sound
- Full range of SVT tones from clean to overdriven
- Powerful tone-shaping Amp Out EQ
- Blend control allows mixing of drive sound in parallel with the clean signal
- Tour-grade, all-metal construction
- High-impedance, buffered bypass with silent switching
- Hand-built in England

The pedal features the same ground-breaking circuitry found in other Analogue Amp Recreation pedals by Origin Effects, delivering all the tone shaping, drive, and character of the historic SVT amp with stunning realism. Additionally, it includes a BLEND knob for mixing in clean signal in parallel with the pedal’s emulated amp circuit, providing subtle low-end clarity or creating massive bi-amp-style overdrive tones.

The balanced DI output is equipped with an all-analogue simulation of Ampeg’s famous 8x10 speaker cabinet, essential to the SVT sound. The proprietary Amp Out EQ allows tailoring of the pedal’s ¼” Amp Out, with LF and HF trimmers, as well as a HORN CUT switch, for post-drive filtering to match on-stage sound to the DI signal, balance clean and overdriven tones, or compensate for changing backline amps.

Housed in a hand-polished, brushed stainless steel enclosure and furnished with aluminum controls, Neutrik jack sockets, and a heavy-duty footswitch, the BASSRIG Super Vintage is designed for both stage and studio use.
