At a Glance

The Laney DB-PRE is a tube/FET hybrid preamp designed to sculpt and record bass guitar with studio-grade tone-shaping and pristine DI output. Its dual-circuit design lets you dial in warm, saturated tube color or tight, articulate FET aggression—or blend both—while the 4-band EQ plus Tilt control gives you the precision to sit your bass perfectly in a mix. Multiple I/O paths (XLR DI pre/post, 1/4" outputs, aux input, and FX loop) make it ideal for recording sessions, mixing bass vocals or other instruments, and capturing a polished DI signal alongside amp recording.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this work with both passive and active bass guitars?

Yes. The DB-PRE includes separate 1/4" inputs for passive and active basses, so you can switch between them or set levels for each without repatching.

Can I use this for recording and live performance?

Absolutely. It has an XLR DI output (switchable pre/post EQ) for direct recording or sending to FOH, a 1/4" main output for amplifier input, headphone output for monitoring, and an FX loop for pedal integration—all the connectivity you need for studio and stage.

What's the difference between the FET and tube channels?

The FET channel delivers punchy, articulate aggression with quick response, while the tube channel provides warm saturation and natural compression. You can use either alone or blend both via the FET/tube switch and tube drive control to craft your tone.

What EQ controls does it have?

Four full bands—Bass, Lo-mid, Hi-mid, and Treble—plus a Tilt control that lets you balance low and high frequencies symmetrically, giving you surgical or creative tone-shaping options.

What's included with the preamp?

The unit itself; check with your retailer for included accessories, cables, and documentation.

Do I pay sales tax on this order?

We collect sales tax only on orders shipped to California. Orders shipped to any other US state are charged $0 sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. On this item that is roughly $21 less out the door than the same listed price at a national retailer or on a marketplace. Marketplaces such as eBay, Reverb and Amazon collect sales tax in nearly every state as marketplace facilitators no matter who the seller is, so the same item at the same price costs less bought direct. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included. Some states ask buyers to self-report use tax on out-of-state purchases.
