(USED) Performer B Station – Bass Preamp/D.I. Pedal – TPPBST
The B Station is Hotone’s all-in-one bass preamp and direct box, built to be the single unit a working bassist plugs into instead of hauling a full rig. It combines a 3-band EQ with switchable pre/post routing, a dedicated drive channel that ranges from mild grit to heavy distortion, a blend knob to mix the driven and clean signals, and a set-and-forget optical compressor to keep your tone even.
It suits bassists who want to go rig-light for a gig or session — run straight into a mixer or interface via the balanced XLR DI output, and you can leave the amp at home entirely. The aluminum housing is built to survive life on a pedalboard, and buying it used is a straightforward way to add stage-ready tone shaping and a DI box in one footprint, at a lower cost than new.

Key Features
Balanced XLR DI Output
Send a clean, direct signal straight to a mixer or interface, with ground lift for eliminating noisy connections.
3-Band EQ with Pre/Post Switching
Shape bass, middle and treble, and choose whether the EQ sits before or after the drive circuit.
Dedicated Drive Channel
A footswitchable drive circuit runs from subtle harmonic warmth to heavy distortion, with its own blend control.
Onboard Optical Compressor
A single-knob compressor evens out your dynamics without needing a separate pedal.
Effects Loop and Headphone Output
Patch other pedals into the signal chain, or plug in headphones for silent practice.
Rugged Aluminum Chassis
A solid metal housing built to hold up to regular pedalboard use on stage.
Care Tip: If you hear unexpected hum through the XLR output, try the ground lift switch before troubleshooting cables — it’s built in specifically to clear up ground-loop noise between the B Station and a PA or interface.
