BASS BUTLER BASS PRE AMP

The Bass Butler was conceived over many IPAs in a small bar on Santa Monica BLVD called the Surly
Goat  by  Technical  Director Adrian  Emsley  with  Morgan  Nicholls  (who  played  bass  in  The  Who  at  the
2012 Olympics closing ceremony and also plays the keyboards in Muse). The idea was to have his epic
bi-amp touring rig in a small, portable preamplifier pedal. We are confident that you will be delighted with
your new purchase and that it will provide you with many years of enjoyment.
