Very easy to shape of great tone out of this pedal. And you can fully dial in the distortion as well as choose between pre or post EQ or even dry EQ while distortion is on. Compressor can be left on even when the pedal is being bypassed. Built-in noise gate. Loads of features and super self-explanatory. Bought this for my son's pedal board and I'm super impressed. If I hadn't had recently purchased a Sans Tech 21 Geddy then I'd be purchasing a second one of these units for myself. Kind of crazy what a value some of these electro-harmonix pedals are these days. Review: Versatile, great sounding preamp - Live I run my bass into this, then into a Tech 21 Power Engine or the PA. The EQ is versatile and sounds great, the compressor and noise gates are useful and well done, and the distortion (several voicing options) sounds really good. ## Features - The Battalion’s distortion section delivers an awesome array of distorted bass sounds - Distortion section features Level, Blend, Drive and Tone controls plus a dedicated footswitch - Three signal flow modes yield unique tonal variations. Pre EQ, distortion comes before EQ. Post EQ, distortion comes after EQ and Dry EQ, only the dry signal mixed in with the Blend control is affected by the EQ - Compressor with dedicated pushbutton, amount control and LED adds thump and sustain to your bass sound - Flexible I/O allows the Battalion to fit perfectly in any bass rig or application ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B072M31S3G | | Amperage | 100 | | Audio Output Effects | Distortion | | Best Sellers Rank | #22,540 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #10 in Bass Distortion & Overdrive Effects #5,985 in Guitar & Bass Accessories | | Brand Name | Electro-Harmonix | | Controls Type | Knob | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 52 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00683274011943 | | Hardware Interface | 1/4-inch Audio | | Included Components | Power adapter | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 5.75"L x 4.75"W x 2.5"H | | Item Height | 3.4 inches | | Item Type Name | Electric Guitar Electronics | | Item Weight | 1.3 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Electro-Harmonix | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Signal Format | Analog | | Style | Bass Preamp & DI | | UPC | 683274011943 | | Voltage | 9.6 Volts | | Warranty Description | Electro-harmonix will repair your product if it fails to operate due to defects in materials or workmanship for a period of one year from date of purchase.

Super pleased. *by L***8 on March 28, 2025* This DI rocks! Excellent design and functionality. No battery but power source included. Very easy to shape of great tone out of this pedal.

If I hadn't had recently purchased a Sans Tech 21 Geddy then I'd be purchasing a second one of these units for myself. Kind of crazy what a value some of these electro-harmonix pedals are these days. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Versatile, great sounding preamp *by M***A on August 29, 2022* Live I run my bass into this, then into a Tech 21 Power Engine or the PA. The EQ is versatile and sounds great, the compressor and noise gates are useful and well done, and the distortion (several voicing options) sounds really good. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent for the price *by W***E on July 8, 2017* I've had this unit for a few weeks now and I'd say that for the price, it's a damn good pedal. The pros are that it first and foremost breathes new life and sparkle into my rather bland amp (Hartke 3500). The eq toggle offers enough variance to taylor your tone however you hear it in your head. The drive is gritty enough to emulate an overdriven amp, but not so fuzzy you loose control of your sound. It's very natural sounding. Cons are the one knob compression. It's lacks focus and punch and frankly sounds better without it engaged. I also wish there was a cross-over ala the delux bass muff (which incidentally makes that pedal). And finally the noise gate is way too sensitive. You either have to deal with hum or have it slam shut on your whole notes and reverb. Ultimately the pros outweigh the cons though. This is a great set-it-and-forget-it pedal. ## Frequently Bought Together - Electro-Harmonix Battalion Black 4-band EQ, MOSFET Distortion, Compressor, Noise Gate Bass Preamp & DI Pedal - D'Addario Accessories Guitar Pedal Power Supply - DC 9V Power Cord - 9V Power Supply for Guitar Pedals - Pedalboard Power Supply - PW-CT-9V - MXR Patch Cable 6 in|15 cm - 3 Pack (3PDCP06) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/42988113-electro-harmonix-battalion-black-4-band-eq-mosfet-distortion-compressor](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/42988113-electro-harmonix-battalion-black-4-band-eq-mosfet-distortion-compressor) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
