Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The Ashdown Pro-FX Double Shot is a two-channel bass overdrive pedal and a scaled-down version of the Ashdown Triple Shot Tri-Band Bass Overdrive. It features dual overdrive circuits with band-specific gain control, allowing independent shaping of low and high frequency overdrive levels to preserve bass clarity while adding defined grit to the upper register. A blendable clean signal lets bassists retain fundamental low-end definition beneath the drive. It is part of the Ashdown ABM Pro-FX range designed in the UK for bass-focused applications.
The Ashdown James LoMenzo signature bass distortion, part of Ashdown's LoMenzo drive line, is built for bass players who want aggressive overdrive without losing their low end. It applies distortion to a selectable midrange band while leaving the deep bass and high treble largely untouched, and a blend control mixes the distorted signal back with the clean dry bass so the tone stays full and punchy. Voiced from a mild grind to full saturated distortion, it suits hard rock and metal bass tones in the style of James LoMenzo of Megadeth and White Lion. Running into a clean bass amp, it adds growling mid presence that helps bass cut through a dense band mix.
