Origin Effects BassRIG Fifteen Amp Simulator Pedal Overview
The Origin Effects BassRIG Fifteen is a fully analogue amp simulator and DI pedal that captures the unmistakable character of the Ampeg B-15 Portaflex – long considered the definitive studio bass sound of the 1960s. Built around Origin Effects’ acclaimed Amp Recreation Circuitry, the BassRIG Fifteen authentically replicates the entire signal path of a vintage valve amp, from the preamp and phase inverter to the push-pull power stage, reactive load, and rectifier sag. The result is a rich, warm bass tone with the natural compression and dynamic feel that made the original B-15 a soul music icon.
Thanks to its all-analogue 1x15 cabinet simulation and balanced DI output, the BassRIG Fifteen provides a studio-ready sound straight to front-of-house, recording interface, or mixer. The AMP OUT EQ ensures compatibility with traditional bass amps and FRFR monitors, while the BLEND control allows you to mix in clean lows for clarity and punch. Housed in a rugged brushed stainless-steel enclosure and built with premium components in England, the BassRIG Fifteen delivers legendary valve tone in a compact, road-ready format that suits any modern bass rig.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionAuthentic analogue amp recreation
At the heart of the BassRIG Fifteen lies Origin Effects’ Amp Recreation Circuitry, an advanced analogue design that mirrors the sound and response of a classic valve amp. Rather than modelling or approximation, this circuit recreates each stage of the original B-15 Portaflex signal path, capturing its warmth, bloom, and organic compression. From gain structure to touch sensitivity, the BassRIG Fifteen delivers the feel and response that players associate with vintage studio bass recordings.
Studio-ready cab simulation
The pedal includes an all-analogue 1x15 cabinet simulation based on the unmistakable voicing of a Portaflex rig. This ensures that your DI tone lands in the mix exactly as intended, with smooth lows, rounded highs, and an authentic mic’d feel. Whether you’re recording direct, sending signal to front-of-house, or using in-ear monitors, the BassRIG Fifteen produces consistent, reliable results without requiring extra hardware.
Flexible output shaping
With dedicated AMP OUT EQ controls, the BassRIG Fifteen can be paired confidently with bass amps, powered speakers, and stage monitors. These controls let you tailor your stage sound independently from the DI feed, ensuring you always hear yourself clearly without compromising the engineer’s mix. It’s a thoughtful and practical feature that enhances the pedal’s usefulness in both live and studio scenarios.
Premium build quality
Housed in a rugged brushed stainless-steel enclosure and assembled with high-grade components in England, the BassRIG Fifteen is designed for reliability and longevity, no matter how hard you play and how often you gig. Its compact form factor makes it easy to integrate into any setup while delivering truly professional results.
