JAM Lucy Dreamer Bass
Jam Pedals · pedal
The JAM Pedals Lucy Dreamer Bass is a premium Tube Screamer-style overdrive pedal from the Greek boutique builder JAM Pedals, specifically voiced and adapted for bass guitar to preserve low-end content while adding the mid-forward overdrive character of the Tube Screamer topology. JAM Pedals applies premium component selection and hand-building to a modified TS circuit that avoids the low-end loss typical of standard Tube Screamer designs on bass. Suited to rock, alternative, and progressive bass contexts requiring a defined, harmonically rich overdrive.
