The Boss Roland company has been producing great sounding effects pedals for decades now. They have build various pedals for almost every single purpose one would use in either their bass rig, keyboard, or their guitar rig. They have successfully manufactured some of the world's first edition effects units and mutli units and have set the stage for many other manufacturers to follow in their walking path. They build a system that gets quality pedals at affordable prices to the budgeted consumers.

The pedal was the follow up to the LM-2 from Boss. The Boss LM-2 was designed with the guitarist in mind and the frequencies that it targeted were angled towards them. Well Boss received some feedback that mostly bass players steered towards this pedal so this edition came out with the words bass on the front.

SOUND QUALITY

The Boss LM-2 was a decent pedal and many guitarist ended up using it but the effects wasn't very substantial. It seemed the since the bass has a lot of frequencies that were weaker and those needed to be pushed and some frequencies that were too loud needed to be squashed the LM-2 was what they were after. So this edition was catered towards the bass guitarist in mind. The LM-2 had some volume loss when you would engage the pedal. This edition stopped that volume loss by adding a circuit to correct that signal loss.

The pedal is really for a bass player to enhance the week frequencies and heighten the low ones. The just balances out the bass tone a little more.

OVERALL OPINION

These pedals were discontinued back in 1994. You can still find them on the used market but they have build more productive bass limiters since this one so in my opinion this one is obsolete. I would go for the Boss LMB-3 if I needed a pedal to do this effect.
