Juggernaut Bass Distortion from ProCo Sound

[gro...@guitargearheads.com]

Here is a quiz for you. I'm sure you won't get the answer. What do the
bands the Cure, Yes, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Rage Against the
Machine, and Kings X have in common? Give up? These bands (as well as
countless others) have used distortion to give bass lines a little more
edge. In doing some research with players who play more bass than I do
there were some very mixed reactions on bass distortion. The "purists"
like a super clean bass that sort of thumps out the root note. The
"industrialists" wanted nothing but crushing walls of sound - the more
the better. My question to them was "Is there a way to get both?"
Meaning, is it possible to get that clean root note that can be heard
over a thick wall of distorted thunder?

My answer was typically a blank stare. I wasn't sure this was possible
without multitracking or using switches to lead to multiple bass
amplifiers. The best option clearly comes in a much simpler (and
smaller) package. For my bass playing brethren, I bring you the
Juggernaut Bass Distortion Pedal from ProCo sound!
