The NUX '59 Bassguy is a compact analog pedal that brings the iconic sound of the legendary Fender '59 Bassman amplifier directly to your pedalboard. As part of the NUX Reissue series, this versatile overdrive/preamp combines authentic vintage tone with modern practicality, giving you classic tube-inspired sounds without the bulk or cost of a vintage amp.

Experience the Legendary '59 Bassman Tone

This pedal meticulously emulates the legendary Fender '59 Bassman sound, known for its rich, dynamic, and articulate tube tones. The '59 Bassguy captures the essence of this classic amplifier, providing everything from warm, clean boosts to gritty, harmonically rich overdrive. Its fully analog signal path ensures a pure, uncolored tone that responds authentically to your playing dynamics, making every note feel alive and expressive.

Versatile Tonal Shaping with 'Jump' Feature

Unlock even more tonal possibilities with the innovative 'Jump' toggle switch. On the original Bassman, players would "jump" channels with a patch cable to combine the Normal and Bright inputs for a unique, brighter sound. The '59 Bassguy faithfully recreates this by allowing you to instantly switch between the Normal channel only or a combination of both Normal and Bright channels. This feature lets you easily dial in different tonal characteristics, from smooth and mellow to punchy and sparkling. With its classic vintage-style panel and knob layout, dialing in your desired sound is intuitive and straightforward. Plus, true bypass switching ensures your signal remains pristine and unaffected when the pedal is disengaged, preserving your instrument's natural tone.
