On top of all of this, the DI out makes recording super easy. If your interface provides phantom power, you can use it to power the pedal as well. I haven't bothered fussing with micing my cabinet since I got this. Definitely recommended if either you do your own recordings or want a distorted bass sound that doesn't sound awful.

Los knobs se sienten un poco plasticosos, pero en general la calidad de construcción es muy buena.
