Setup for this clip was: Reverend Warhawk HB into Amptramp, clean, miked directly into the laptop.

The bass contour is basically a bass cut pot that Reverends have in addition to the usual tone knob. Both controls really let you shape the sound and response of the guitar.

The recording doesn't quite catch the full extent of how the sound changes from using the bass contour (blame the mic and my recording skills), but you can clearly hear how it gets the humbucker into single-coil territory. In real life the change is deeper, especially with the bass contour full on (thus, no bass cut).

And now you'll hear my bad accent too. :p

Cool! That control sounds like a pretty slick feature. Lots of tonal possibilities. I think I forgot to say before that the paint job is darn sexy too.
