Bass Player Gear Of The Year

dUg PINNICK
DP-X3 SIGNATURE PEDAL

A super-compact adaptation of his Tech 21 Ultra Bass 1000 Signature head, the DP-3X also recreates the sound dUg originally developed way back in the ‘80s, merging high-end distortion with low-end bass. Prior to his signature head, this involved running a guitar amp and a bass amp together, along with rack full of effects. Wanting to further streamline his gear for occasions when his full Tech 21 rig simply isn’t practical, dUg collaborated on the all-analog DP-3X pedal. Personally beta-testing the DP-3X on a European tour, dUg encountered a different backline in each and every venue. But no matter which amp was on stage, dUg was able to nail his immense tone each and every night.

In addition to achieving dUg’s unique tone, the DP-3X has the flexibility to provide traditional bass amp sounds as well. Mix mode engages Drive to bring in distortion and Chunk for upper harmonics. A Gain button provides additional distortion and compression. In clean/full-range mode, Drive and Chunk disengage, while Comp and Gain remain active. Other controls include 3-band active EQ with switchable Mid and a master Volume. Features include chromatic tuner, headphone capability, and an XLR Output to go direct to the PA desk or studio board without compromising detail, warmth or responsiveness.

MP3 format – 245k, Guitar used: Yamaha Pacifica 112 on bridge pickup (humbucking); Bass: Yamaha RBX 260, lightly compressed (3:1 ratio); Effects: Subtle 360-millisecond stereo delay on lead track; EQ: +5dB 80Hz low shelving on rhythm

FEATURES

• SansAmp tube amplifier emulator, is pre-voiced for clean tones. It includes 3-band active EQ, Level, and Drive to adjust the overall amount of gain and overdrive.

• Reverb, within the SansAmp section, is based upon the Boost RVB pedal. It emulates the rich ambiances of a vintage spring reverb without clattery pings, canyons of doom, or other annoying artifacts.

• OMG overdrive, based upon Richie’s Signature OMG pedal, brings in the organic distortion of single power tube Class A amplifiers, but with a tighter, quicker and snappier response. Includes Level, Tone and Drive controls.

• Boost, within the OMG section, kicks in up to 21dB of pre-amp gain. It can be used independently to boost the SansAmp and/or DLA functions, as well as on its own to boost the gain of your amp.

• DLA is based upon the Boost DLA pedal. It is voiced to give you the sounds of a vintage tape echo and features Level, Time, Repeats, and Drift, which adds a random element to the modulation for authentic textures. A dedicated Tap Tempo switch makes it super simple to just tap in the delay tempo you want during your performance.

• All analog signal path; reverb and delay are mixed in parallel.

• All metal housing.

• Metal footswitches and jacks.

• 1/4-inch high-impedance input.

• 1/4-inch low impedance output.

• Silent-switching, custom footswitch actuators.

• Actual size: 11.5″l x 2.5″w x 1.25″h / Weight: 18.6 oz.

• Utilizes included 12V DC power supply, 150mA, center negative.

North America: Model #DC3-A / International: Model #DC3-D 

Note: International power supplies are “auto-switching,” self-adjusting 100V-240V, which can be used anywhere in the world with the proper plug/travel adapter for the host country.

• NOTE: Earlier versions of the RK5 were shipped with 4 knob grippers, one on each Level control. Additional knob grippers are sold in packs of 10 on our Accessories page.
