Can you use it as well as Bass Distortion Effect and how it sounds?

Yes and it sounds pretty good but it definitely has that Rat character. I really like the Hardwire Valve Distortion for my bass.

Hi, you could but it will sound muddy because there is no tweeter or horn in it. It is meant for a bass guitar. Thanks

Yes....in fact it's best that way. For best results, hook into a system with a sub wolfer or something with a deep bass response. I use a 1/4 in Y connector and run a bass amp and a guitar amp together. You get that big boom sound with the bass drum that way.

Effects sound ok if you run the amp clean. If you use the amp gain it gets too muddy. There is not much clean volume either so keep that in mind.

You can but you might not get the sound you want (depending on your style). You can do a lot of damage plugging a bass into a guitar amp though.

Yes this amp has a good distortion. Also keep in mind many people use guitar effect pedals as well to get their personal tone, but to get started you should be fine with the distortion this amp puts out.

I use it for that, but I bought this with listening to music in mind. No doubt, its bass-leaning tendency gives more "oomph" in in-game explosions.

I've tried it. Some of the preset effects give a lot of feed back but the clean ones work just fine. Its great for creating a different sound. I love it!!!

I tried it at a concert and the video looks good, but the sound volume decreases very much as soon as the low bass notes come in. I guess you could edit it afterwards and make it better. It does pick up everything very well when there's no bass, even when the audience is cheering or even when someone in the audience yells something. Here's a little video I made to demonstrate the quality. (Note: youtube compressed the video, but the sound is like the original video.)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hO0hDh8rZkg

Yeah just put the distortion really high up. Some people might not like the default distortion tone the amp already has, but you could always buy a distortion or overdrive pedal and plug it into the amp. It might have a better tone if you don't already like the distortion the amp already provides. It can play speed/thrash.

Yes you can. If you want to get creative, run it though an effects pedal for additional punch.

You will not get any distortion from this device. It has many adjustable settings. I never used it at a live concert but I say give it a try. If it doesn't work send it back for a refund.

The amp has clean/overdrive, but if you are looking for any real distortion I'd suggest getting a standalone distortion pedal

This question highly depends on your headphone amplifier. The bass response is awesome with a proper headphone amp. For electronic music get a solid state amp.

Yes you can use a bass on this pedal. I practice on it with a P Bass. It's a great little practice pedal, not something I would hit the stage with though.

Not sure i don't play bass, i don't know many people who use effects on bass
