Best Overdrive Pedal
James K. 23.04.2018
I plugged this pedal in with the controls set flat, immediately i was blown away by the distorted tone available to me. The grunt and mid Boost Switches add bottom end and mids back into the tone, the Tone knob changes the character of the distortion, likely by affecting the treble.
The blend knob does exactly what it says, blends your dry tone with the distorted signal.
The Footswitch is one of the new "non-click" types and is very smooth and sturdy. The chassis is also made from very thick yet light Aluminium.
My only issue (and its a very very small one) with this pedal is the location of the 9V DC In, on the bottom right, next to the instrument in, its a little awkward.
Overall this is a great pedal and despite the price I would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone, you can get a wide variety of overdriven and distorted tones and this pedal has allowed me to achieve the sound I've always wanted my bass to sound like.

This is just great
Fleamaster 05.03.2024
Great for any bass player. Not only the drive sounds great on its own, not only the blend knob allows you to play around with your clean signal, you can use it to dial up just a bit of grit and enhance your bass tone without distorting it. Especially great with Darkglass Harmonic booster before it

Absolutely amazing pedal
Ado 28.08.2018
This is the overdrive sound i always wanted. Everything from a little hint of grit to face melting distortion. It has completely changed my sound and how i sit in a mix. It's an absolute must for any rock or metal bassist. It is a very well made pedal too. The only issue i have, which isn't really an issue, is the location of the power jack is kind of awkward.

Awesome Product
Sherwood 22.02.2019
Quite possibly my favorite pedal I've owned. I recommend this to any bassist wanting a heavier tone in a band mix.

Top bass overdrive
AZ218 10.09.2024
All has already been said. One of the best bass overdrive pedals. Fat, punchy, it cuts through the mix and you don't lose your low end. Everything what a bassist need.

The best bass drive pedal
Gol_D_Ray 25.11.2022
For me, Darkglass B3K is very versatile. The tone knob helps cut through any mix. I love the texture and no bass loss. I tried a lot of different pedals, but every time returned to Darkglass
