Description

The Bass Blowtorch is built for players who want grit without giving up the bottom. Instead of drowning your signal in fuzz, MXR concentrates the overdrive right in the midrange — so distorted mids cut through a wall of guitars and drums while your low-end thump and top-end sizzle stay intact underneath. Dial it back for a smoky, tube-like growl or push it into scorched-earth high-gain distortion; the range covers both ends and everything between.

  • Active 3-band EQ with a 3-position mid shift, so you can chase down exactly the frequency you want gritty and leave the rest clean
  • Blend knob to mix your distorted tone with the direct signal, letting you keep as much low-end punch as you need under the dirt
  • Runs at 18 volts internally for extra headroom, added clarity, and lower noise floor — even cranked at stage volume
  • True hardwire bypass, so bypassed tone stays exactly as it should be with zero coloration
  • Die-cast metal enclosure that’s been beaten on by touring bassists night after night

This isn’t a guitar pedal with a bass label slapped on — it’s an MXR Bass Innovations design built from the ground up for low frequencies, made exclusively by Dunlop Manufacturing. Plug it into your board and let the mids do the work while your low end keeps the groove locked down.
