{"product_id":"earthquaker-scrolls-433058","title":"Scrolls","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA Collaboration Designed as an \"Atlas\" of Bass Sounds\u003c\/h3\u003eCreated in partnership with \u003cstrong\u003eKentaro Nakao\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Scrolls embraces a very musical approach: rather than a single-character effect, it is a tool capable of \u003cstrong\u003erecreating rig sensations\u003c\/strong\u003e and taking you on a journey through the electric bass universe. The idea is simple: to provide bassists with a modern pedal, precise enough to fit a \"recording\" aesthetic and inspiring enough to move from a \u003cstrong\u003eMotown\u003c\/strong\u003e sound to \u003cstrong\u003erock\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003emetal\u003c\/strong\u003e textures without losing the foundation of the low spectrum.\u003cbr \/\u003eThe nod to the \"flip-top\" sound with a 15-inch speaker perfectly illustrates its philosophy: to recover that generous low midrange, natural compression, and presence that \"holds\" in a mix, while maintaining the freedom to explore much more contemporary and aggressive tones.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFor Which Bassist and Styles?\u003c\/h3\u003eThe Scrolls is aimed at bassists who want to \u003cstrong\u003emaster their sonic identity\u003c\/strong\u003e and no longer rely solely on amp or console EQ. It suits both progressing musicians (who want to understand how EQ and gain truly transform their playing) and seasoned bassists seeking a reliable \u003cstrong\u003epreamp \/ EQ \/ saturation\u003c\/strong\u003e for live and studio use.\u003cbr \/\u003eIn \u003cstrong\u003eblues, soul, funk\u003c\/strong\u003e, and pop, it helps place the bass \"up front\" with clean lows, clear mids, and controlled attack. In \u003cstrong\u003erock\u003c\/strong\u003e, it adds harmonic density to better cut through the mix without bloating the low end. In \u003cstrong\u003emetal\u003c\/strong\u003e, its gain approach aims to preserve wide, intact lows-a crucial point when guitars already occupy a lot of space.\u003cbr \/\u003eOn a pedalboard, it can become the \u003cstrong\u003eheart of your sound\u003c\/strong\u003e: a pedal that stabilizes your signal, harmonizes the output of passive or active basses, and provides a consistent \"reference point\" from one stage or session to another.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eControls and Architecture: Sculpting, Routing, Saturating\u003c\/h3\u003eThe Scrolls focuses on \u003cstrong\u003ecomprehensive EQ controls\u003c\/strong\u003e with extremely customizable frequencies: the goal is to treat the bass like in the studio, precisely adjusting the fundamental range, midrange definition, and air in the high spectrum. This precision serves both to correct room or backline issues and to shape an aesthetic (vintage, modern, hi-fi, rougher).\u003cbr \/\u003eIts \u003cstrong\u003eflexible routing\u003c\/strong\u003e facilitates integration into many setups: classic effects chain into the amp input, rig oriented as a preamp, or used as a shaping tool before other saturations, modulations, and ambience effects. The idea is to avoid the feeling of a \"finicky pedal\": the Scrolls is designed to adapt to your system, not the other way around.\u003cbr \/\u003eFinally, the \u003cstrong\u003etube-style gain channel\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed to be versatile: from subtle warmth (harmonics, slight compression, presence) to more pronounced saturation. Above all, the philosophy is clear: even when pushing the gain, the bass must remain \u003cstrong\u003ewide, deep, and intact\u003c\/strong\u003e, with a low end that doesn't collapse and dynamics that respond to your touch (fingers, pick, slap).\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Sound\u003c\/h3\u003eThe Scrolls is characterized by a very \u003cstrong\u003esculptable\u003c\/strong\u003e signature: it can remain relatively transparent when mainly balancing the instrument, or become more colored as soon as saturation and more pronounced EQ curves are used. In a vintage register, you can aim for a round bass centered on the low mids, with a soft attack and a thickness reminiscent of classic takes.\u003cbr \/\u003eConversely, in a modern context, it can deliver a tighter, edgier sound, with biting mids and presence that help the bass stay intelligible in dense arrangements. The \"tube-style\" saturation adds useful harmonics for note clarity while preserving the foundation: a key point to avoid the \"distortion eating the lows\" effect.\u003cbr \/\u003eResult: whether you seek the precise sound of a California-born bass pushed through a vintage combo, or the bite of an active bass in a transistor stack, the Scrolls is designed to give you \u003cstrong\u003ethe right character\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ethe right foundation\u003c\/strong\u003e, with responsiveness that follows your playing.\u003cbr \/\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEffects\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eEQ, Distortion \/ Overdrive \/ Fuzz, Preamp\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003esector\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eAnalog\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eelectric guitar\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:7;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ePedal\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eMulticolor\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:4;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEQ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e3 channels\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSignal shaping tool\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003epreamp \/ equalization \/ saturation\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Earthquaker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54361063915795,"sku":"433058","price":399.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/1ad175bf2a88880b7d8fa6295ab46827966c17d1_FILLING_EQDSCRLV1EU.jpg?v=1792629613","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/earthquaker-scrolls-433058","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
