Description
Bass players fight a constant battle between punch and control: dig in too hard and you get ugly clipping, play it safe and you lose presence. The Boss LMB-3 tackles both problems at once, pairing a limiter built for electric bass with an enhancer circuit that pulls clarity out of the low end without thinning it out.
The limiter side gives you threshold and ratio knobs so you can dial in exactly how much dynamic range gets reined in — perfect for evening out slap attacks, aggressive picking, or just keeping your signal polite for the front-of-house engineer. Flip on the enhancer and the LMB-3 sharpens definition and presence, helping your bass cut through a dense mix instead of getting buried under guitars and keys.
This particular unit is open box and graded mint — it’s been unboxed and inspected but shows no signs of use, so you get full LMB-3 performance at a friendlier price point.
- Threshold and ratio controls for full command of dynamic range
- Dedicated enhancer circuit boosts bass clarity and presence
- Runs on 9V battery or AC adaptor (PSA-Series, sold separately)
- Backed by BOSS’s five-year warranty
- Compact chassis: 73mm W x 129mm D x 59mm H, 430g
- -20 dBu nominal I/O level, 1M ohm input impedance, 17mA current draw
Set it early in your signal chain to keep downstream pedals from choking on hot peaks, or place it right before your amp to control what actually hits the speaker. Either way, the LMB-3 is a straightforward, purpose-built tool for bassists who want tighter dynamics and more presence without touching their core tone.
