The Ampeg SGT-DI™ preamp and DI give modern bassists an entire rig in a single stompbox. Its blend of classic Ampeg tone features for detailed tone creation and user-friendly design makes it an ideal choice for bass players looking for iconic SVT® and B15 voices, along with the lightweight, ultra-portability of a pedal.
Sound Quality and Flexibility
SGT-DI delivers authentic and legendary Ampeg sound known for warmth, power, punch, and clarity. This ensures that bass lines are not only heard but felt, creating a more immersive and emotionally impactful performance for your audiences.
You can fine-tune your bass sound with a range of tonal shaping options. SGT-DI’s Super Grit Technology™ overdrive circuit and grit controls allow you to add just the right amount of growl and edge to your tone. The three-band EQ provides further control over the bass, mid, and treble frequencies, ensuring that your sound sits perfectly in the mix to complement the acoustics of your church.
Modern Applications and Ease of Use
Additionally, SGT-DI's direct injection (DI) input makes connecting directly to a sound system easy, ensuring a clean and powerful signal. This allows your bass sound to be prominent in the mix without overpowering other instruments or vocals. The built-in cab simulator further enhances the DI output, providing a consistent, studio-quality sound that translates well through any PA system.
If you enjoy having multiple cabinet options to shape your bass tone, SGT-DI allows you to choose from three classic Ampeg cabs or up to three cabs using the free Ampeg IR (Impulse Response) Loader application–adding a customized touch to your tone by using your favorite IR.
In weekly worship settings where quick setups and sound checks are frequently required, SGT-DI’s intuitive layout and sturdy build make it a reliable and durable addition to your performance rig or even an entire bass rig by itself!
