The TONE HAMMER Preamp/DI
Congratulations on your purchase of the preamp/direct box so powerful it could only be
called the
TONE HAMMER
! Designed to be more than just a preamp and with more
functionality than a standard DI, the
TONE HAMMER
is an essential tool for every bassist.
In addition to the warm, organic sound that Aguilar is known for, the
TONE HAMMER
provides three bands of EQ with fully sweepable midrange frequencies for maximum
tonal sculpting. Separate
GAIN
and
MASTER
controls allow you to dial in just the right
gain structure for any instrument.
To give this tone shaping unit the ultimate flexibility we are introducing our proprietary
Adaptive Gain Shaping
circuitry (
AGS
).
AGS
modifies the gain structure and EQ,
making it easy to go from modern slap sounds to vintage warmth or overdriven tones at
the stomp of a button. 18-volt operation gives plenty of headroom to reproduce the most
dynamic playing styles. With all this and the
TONE HAMMER
's pristine DI you are ready
to hit the studio or stage.
