5First Class design, build quality and function!  Feb 18, 2011 By james d parfitt
I've owned this unit for about a year and I absolutely love it. First of all, it's built like a tank; MUCH sturdier than I expected, and heavy so it stays in place wherever you put it. This is a very well designed eq. So far I've only used it for a passive electric bass, but it allows me to use only this and a power amp; ANY old power amp (that old stereo, for example, or I use it with my tiny Crate power block), and get a great sound and full function. Most stomp box eq's don't allow for this, because they aren't an actual preamp. But this is, so you can plug it directly into a power amp. This has all the essentials and nothing extra. Excellent compressor, phase switch to cut feedback on an acoustic bass (genius!), pre/post on the xlr out with a ground lift; so it's a direct box too. Great voicing on the eq. This unit is first class in design, function and build quality, and I'm about to buy a spare. Even the battery box is the best design I've ever seen. You don't need an expensive bass amp, just get this and a power amp! Jim Parfitt, Seattle


5Excellent Product  Mar 30, 2012 By Ziggy
From sound quality to build quality this is a great product. Purchased to use with condenser mic/pick-up for my double bass and it performs wonderfully. Works great as a D.I. box for running electrics straight to P.A. as well. Build quality is better than I imagined from just having seen pictures of it, very durable and road worthy.


4Upright Feedback Buster  Mar 02, 2012 By J_Joe_Pan1
After several performances I have found the Fishman Platinum Bass pedal to be very effective at controlling feedback. We frequently play fairly loud music with drums banging away; I need gainy, big bass sound from my upright to settle effectively in the mix. With this pedal I can find a good mix of compression and sustain control that really limits the feedback while maintaining a moderately natural sound. The highs still come through, as well. As is usually the case, when I'm too close to my amplifier and I play arco there still tend to be some feedback problems, but this is extremely difficult to curtail. All-in-all a great little box for a reasonable price.


5Perfect DI Box for Bass - Not an amp modeler  Jun 26, 2011 By impact_bass
This is a great DI box if you are looking for something that complements your bass without coloring the sound. I play a fairly clean sound with NS Design EUB, Warwick Thumb, etc. I use a Demeter HBP-1 when I use an amp, which is warm but clean. I can say that the Fishman Pro-EQ Platinum Bass accurately reproduces my instruments' sound without overly coloring the sound. It is warm, and the compression in the DI box is a great feature. If you are looking for something that will make your bass sound like it is running through an overdriven SVT - this is not the box. It is a very well balanced DI with the right controls for getting a bass to sound natural and full through the house. If you want to color your sound or are going for the sound of a particular amp, then go with a Sansamp or one of the other capable boxes built for that purpose. This box seems built with clean bass and upright bass in mind.


1Not all that..  Mar 09, 2011 By Isaac C. Perry
I bought this for upright bass. I liked the features, and really wanted to like the sound, but it just didn't have the drive or tone that my Tech21 Bass Driver has, which is what I ended up using. Now, before you jump to the "well, you weren't using it right" conclusion, I really did try several configurations, i.e. direct into a power amp, throught the front end of my GK bass amp, into a mixer, etc., and still came up with the same conclusion, it was weak.
