The Darkglass Kaamos is a bass overdrive and sub-octave pedal designed to deliver heavy, textured distortion with deep low-frequency reinforcement. Built for modern bassists who need aggressive drive without losing clarity, the Kaamos blends analog saturation with a powerful octave-down circuit for massive, mix-dominant tones. Its gain structure maintains articulation while offering thick, harmonically rich distortion.
The pedal’s intuitive control layout allows players to dial in subtle grit, focused midrange punch, or fully saturated doom-style drive. The integrated octave extends the low end to create a commanding sonic footprint ideal for metal, industrial, and experimental styles. Its voicing preserves note definition even under extreme settings, making it suitable for both studio and live performance.
Crafted with the durability Darkglass is known for, the Kaamos features a robust chassis, silent switching, and reliable components built for touring. Its compact footprint makes it an easy addition to any pedalboard, providing bassists with a high-impact drive solution capable of reshaping the character of their entire rig.
