Bass version of Brutalist Jr.

GCI Bass Brutalist is a new interpretation of the Brutalist Jr. circuit redesigned specifically for bass. This bass version uses LEDs for clipping and a modified FX-10 style tone stack with a wide range of tonal adjustment from bright and clanky to deep and smooth.

Sale is for PCB only. You must source the components and build the pedal yourself. To make foot switch wiring easier, we also suggest you buy the 3pdt utility switch.

Build documentation can be found here below. Please read before purchasing.
