Blower Box Deluxe
The Blower Box Deluxe is all the awesomeness of the original Blower Box but with a tighter more mids focused sound and also a parallel mixable clean signal with low pass filter control!
Use at 9, 12 or 18VDC depending on your headroom preference.
DIR is the direct signal volume, PASS is the direct signal low pass filter control (150Hz-10kHz), High is the distortion high tone frequency cut/boost control, LOW is the distortion low tone frequency cut/boost control, DIST is the distortion intensity control and VOL is the distortion volume.
If that extra clean low end is what you dig, then the Blower Box Deluxe is your bag, baby!

TESTIMONIALS:
"WOW! This is a Great Pedal!! On my first run through I got so into playing that I forgot about the food in the oven and almost ruined dinner! Hahaha
Sounds great in standard tuning and in Drop D (where I spend most of my time) Works with all my pedals (pre and post). Clean mix with sweepable Filter is AWESOME! Let's you dial it in just right for every situation. Sounds F'N HUGE running MXR Bass Octave Deluxe before or my EBS Octabass after. And takes Envelope Filters and Wah perfect!! Very distinct sound. Different than my Abominable or Dunwich Volt Thrower....And every bit as devastating! A definite keeper." -Joel T. (Florida)
"I don't know why you didn't do this direct signal thing sooner, but this is just divine. Somehow you made my favorite bass overdrive even better." -Eric S. (New Hampshire)
"I can say as much as I liked the original, I like this one even more! Sounds huge!" -Erik E. (North Carolina)
"WOW does this thing slaughter at 18v!" -Nathan A. (New Hampshire)
"Holy fuck dude! This thing gives me the chills. Does everything from sleazy low gain blues to a doom metal tone that sounds like the fabric of the universe is being ripped apart. Finally found a bass distortion with a blend knob that does what it's supposed to do and doesn't sound like a distorted bass played over a clean bass. The blend on this adds as much low end as you can handle and just sounds right. This pedal just knocked three other dirt pedals off my board. I think I'm going to order a second one. One for an always on tone and one to cause capillary blood vessels to burst. Thanks for building this thing. It's a masterpiece." -Joe K. (Michigan)
"The BB Deluxe is awesome! Plenty of low end, not muddy. Overall, more focused and controlled over the original. I find it more responsive to playing dynamics, and it seems to get along with my wah pedal much better. The added clean volume and LPF is a massive plus. You goddam nailed it!!" -Steve J. (Washington)
"Got the pedal situated on my board and can confidently say it's not coming off any time soon. Sounds phenomenal with all my basses, even when I tune the 5 to drop A...I love dirt pedals with a lot of tone shaping options, and this is no exception! The BBD clearly has a signature voice and flavor, but the high, low, and low-passed blend controls really let you shape it. The BBD really excels at high gain distortion where I can dial in (for lack of a better term) some gank (like the opposite of djent) all while having that fat clean bottom end supporting...thanks for building such a cool pedal! -Jacob P. (Los Angeles)
"I am absolutely BLOWN away by the new Blower Box Deluxe. I already have an OG that I love, but the idea of a blend and low pass filter seemed like it would be great. After getting it and plugging it for the first time, I thought it was cool but was not entirely blown away in comparison to the OG. Fast forward a couple days later I decide to use it with 18v. HOLY SMOKES. Totally different animal - absolutely INCREDIBLE. The mid range, headroom and clean up is so much better than the OG. Just wanted to share this with you!!" -Mariful A. (Tonronto, Canada)
"I finally got to plug my bass in and play your blower box deluxe pedal and I absolutely love it!! The richness of the mid tones, the overall tightness of the sound, and the smoothness of the distortion absolutely rules! Thanks for making this killer bestial beast." -Toli H. (Australia)
"Last week I stopped into Coast Sonic in Carlsbad, California with a list of 3-4 rat clones I wanted to try out for my bass. No matter how much I liked the sound, I was pretty disappointed that I couldn't do much to stop my low end from dropping out. I told the guy who worked there, and he went in back and told me to try out the Blower Box Deluxe. Blew me away. Explosive at pretty much all gain levels, great, GREAT tone controls; this thing rocks. I bought it immediately and have been jamming on it for hours every day since." -Joshua B. (California)
"I just got the pedal not too long ago, and it's amazing! It's the exact bass drive I've been looking for and wanting from a dirt pedal for bass. The EQ and clean blend work so well and in such a way I haven't heard before. I also just had a chance to play it during my band's practice, and it cut through the mix effortlessly while retaining my bass's low end. I couldn't be happier. Thanks so much for the awesome pedal." -Vincent S. (California)
"Holy shit, I LOVE this pedal! Got it yesterday and played with it for a few hours last night after work and it's simply fantastic. Still trying to wrap my head around the high- and low-pass filters, but it knocks off needing a blender pedal because I'm on bass. Can't wait to try it out at our next practice!" -Gregg F. (California)
"I just wanted to send you a note to tell you how much I absolutely LOVE my Blower Box Deluxe. A friend of mine suggested it so I bought one and WOW! Plugged it in, everything at noon and BAM exactly what I wanted! I tweaked it a bunch and it's just perfection in a box. Keep up the good work!" -Chris G. (The Internet)
"The pedal loves to genk. It'll light up at any mids or highs you feed it and go wild with those frequencies. And it sustains well but also mutes quickly, which allows you to maintain playing dynamics. I didn't realise how sluggish other dirt pedals are until I tried this. Great for a bass player competing with a guitarist in a noise rock band. 1 pedal. 3 tone options. I'm done for my indie pop rock band now, I got the 3 tones I need. Thank you so much. I had intended to use this far more aggressively but it's nailed a tone issue that I've been struggling with for ages." -Scott P. (Australia)
"I'm loving the pedal its like everything I've been trying to do in 1 pedal. I was running a Way Huge Green Rhino into a 85 ProCo Rat with an Ampeg Optical Compressor (Opto comp) on a my trusty 85 Explorer Bass. And your Pedal has killed that setup, I run with the Warwick Gnome Amps 280 watt head in to a 2x10 4 omh Warwick cab live and your pedal caps of a great live rig. I play anything from Doom to Ambient to D-Beat to OSDM. Thank you from a very happy Australian Bassist. -Brian W. (Australia)
"This pedal gives me the sound I was looking for, for so long. I tried a multitude of different dirt pedals (both cheap and boutique) on bass, many of them satisfying/okay, but still no cigar. The Blower Box Deluxe gives that gnarly Rat-like distortion, with a broader EQ, and that low-pass-filter clean blend, it's the secret weapon, the special sauce that makes the difference. It gives that extra bite to the clean low end, even on a very clean bassamp, this pedal makes the ground shake.
Not to mention using a (slightly) pushed tube amp. Best money ever spent. -Ivar H. (The Internet)
"Hello, Atarimatt! I'm just writing this to say I've MASSIVELY enjoyed your Blower Box Deluxe. Bought it new earlier this year, it entirely replaced my other bass distortion and I haven't looked back since. It sounds killer live, in rehearsals, and in-studio; you made a wonderful, crafty device that has already brought me many hours of joy! Keep it up, cheers!" -Santiago (The Internet)
"OMG this thing is ridiculous and exactly what I was hoping for!" -Erik B. (Maryland)
"I received the pedal on Friday. I've been playing with it all weekend and it's badass. The fact that it does high gain so well while keeping my low end intact is huge. It just sounds monstrous. This is exactly what I was looking for. Awesome pedal dude and thanks again for all your help, I appreciate it." -Ryan H. (California)
