Ampeg SGT-DI Bass Preamp and DI Pedal with EQ Compressor Cab Sim IR is a compressor pedal.

Description

Ampeg call their SGT-DI Preamp and DI "the all-in-one bass box" because it gives modern bassists an entire rig in a single, compact pedal! The SGT-DI delivers an enhanced Super Grit Technology (SGT) overdrive circuit featuring iconic Ampeg SVT and B15 voices, versatile 3-band EQ (now with sweepable mids), 3-way Ultra-Hi and Ultra-Lo switches, a variable compressor, and an aux/headphone section. The Ampeg SGT-DI Preamp and DI pedal can therefore serve as a "command centre" for your pedalboard, allowing you to plug in and play anywhere!

The SGT-DI Preamp and DI also introduces the first IR Loader/Cab Simulator from Ampeg. You can choose from three classic factory cabs or up to three cabs of your own by using the free Ampeg IR Loader application. Combining time-tested Ampeg tone with modern capabilities, the SGT-DI demonstrates Ampeg's commitment to honouring their legacy while also serving the needs of contemporary players.

Key Features

  • 3-Band EQ with a concentric, sweepable mid-range frequency selector.
  • Super Grit Technology (SGT) circuit that provides more of the warm, gutsy growl that defines Ampeg tone!
  • All-analogue SVT & B15 voicing circuit works as an enhancement to the SGT circuit, replicating the grit and harmonic distortion of these two iconic amplifiers when played at different levels.
  • Onboard IR loader/cab simulator lets you choose from three classic factory cabs (Heritage B15, Heritage SVT-410HLF, and vintage "square-back" SVT810), or up to three cabs of your own by using the free Ampeg IR Loader application. Volume for the IR loader is controlled via a push-and-release control on the side of the pedal.
  • Ultra-Hi and 3-way Ultra-Lo switches allow for extra tone-tailoring.
  • Built-in variable 10:1 compressor keeps your tone dynamic and level.
  • Aux/headphone section, which includes a push-and-release volume control.
  • Balanced XLR and 1/4" line outputs with a ground lift switch.

Specifications

  • Size (H x W x D): 2.5 x 7.4 x 4.9 inches / 65 x 189 x 126 mm
  • Weight: 1.9 lbs / 0.85 kg

Bass

Bass gear is all about laying the foundation of the music, providing depth, groove and connection between rhythm and harmony. From bass guitars and amplifiers to pedals and accessories designed specifically for low frequencies, everything here is built to deliver clarity, punch and control. Whether you are holding down a steady rhythm or shaping a more melodic bass voice, the right bass equipment helps you stay locked in and felt as much as heard.

Compressor

A compressor evens out the dynamics of a guitar signal by reducing the difference between loud and quiet notes. It adds sustain, tightens the overall sound, and can enhance clarity and consistency, making it especially useful for clean playing, funk rhythms, and smooth lead tones.

EQ

EQ, or equalisation, is used to shape the tonal balance of a sound by boosting or cutting specific frequency ranges. Common controls include bass, mid, and treble, or more detailed bands that allow precise adjustment of problem areas or tonal character.

EQ is an essential tool in guitar rigs, recording, and live sound, helping instruments sit properly in a mix and sound clear without unwanted harshness or muddiness. It can be used subtly to refine tone or more aggressively to dramatically reshape a sound.

preamp

A preamp is a stage in the signal chain that boosts the guitar’s signal and shapes its core tone before it reaches the power amp or recording interface. Preamp pedals and units can add gain, EQ, and character, helping define clarity, warmth, and drive while forming the foundation of a player’s overall sound.
