It's NAMM 2018, and someone is saying, "Let me hear that bass and put it in my face." Well, it's easy with some of the new stompboxes we are seeing for bass instruments from Ampeg. At B&H, we checked out the LIQUIFIER Analog Chorus and the OPTO COMP Analog Optical Compressor.

The LIQUIFIER features a dual-chorus circuit that is designed to deliver rich chorus tones, from subtle to out-of-this-world. Just plug in your bass guitar and dial-in the perfect sound with rate, depth, and effect level controls. There is true bypass, analog design with incredible signal-to-noise ratio. It is built with a roadworthy die-cast zinc chassis and is powered by a 9V DC supply or battery (not included).

The Ampeg OPTO COMP is an analog, optical compressor for bass guitar. It delivers smooth, vintage-style compression, features true bypass, and is equipped with incredible signal-to-noise ratio. The stompbox allows you to dial-in a natural sound, with compression and release controls. Output controls allow you to maximize the sustain and make up for heavy compression. It is designed with a roadworthy, die-cast zinc chassis and is powered by a (V DC supply or battery (not included).

These two stompboxes are sure to pique your interest and allow you to create new sounds for your bass instrument. They are portable, lightweight, and easy to operate, and allow you to dial-in your sound. So, let's hear that bass! The stompboxes are available at B&H.
