Mindbender "Binaural Bean" #17 (Origin series variant)

The “Binaural Bean” is the first publicly available split path Mindbender, and the 17th build of the Origin model series. With a separateable circuit allowing the two low strings to route to a seperate audio path from the two high strings, the “Bean” is capable of dialing two entirely different playing regions of the Mindbender independantly from eachother. This feature cultivates an expansion to the Mindbender’s massive frequency range, allowing a single performer to execute separated searing leads over chunky dense basslines simultaneously.

(One of many possibilities, send the lows through a bass-effect chain and your favorite bass rig on the left, the highs through a plugin of high-gain leads on your right.)

Includes:
• Hard case, badge-marked for #17
• Certificate of Authenticity + archival Proof Vault record
