Used Ampeg SCR-DI Bass Preamp with Scrambler Overdrive Pedal

$199.99

The SCR-DI is more than just a direct box; it is a tonal chameleon that bridges the gap between the studio and the stage. It allows you to dial in everything from the round, pillowy warmth of a vintage Portaflex B-15 to the aggressive, harmonically dense roar of a classic SVT. Whether you are laying down tracks in a bedroom or playing through a massive PA system, the SCR-DI ensures your "Ampeg identity" remains intact.

The addition of the Bass Scrambler Overdrive provides a dedicated grit circuit that adds "hair" and harmonic complexity to your signal. With independent Drive and Blend controls, you can surgically add saturation—ranging from a subtle tube-like breakup to a saturated grunge—without losing your low-end fundamental.

Key Features

  • Iconic Preamp Circuitry: Features the classic Ampeg EQ and Ultra-Hi/Ultra-Lo tone shaping for instant "record-ready" sound.

  • Integrated Bass Scrambler: A foot-switchable overdrive that delivers authentic SVT-style grind with a clean blend to preserve clarity.

  • Professional Connectivity: Equipped with a balanced XLR out for the PA, an affected 1/4" out for your amp, and an unaffected "thru" for a dry signal or tuner.

  • Silent Practice Tool: Includes a dedicated 1/8" headphone jack and an auxiliary input, making it the perfect portable practice station.

  • Built to Last: Housed in a rugged, die-cast zinc chassis designed to withstand years of heavy touring.
