Behringer BXL3000 Ultrabass Bass Combo Amplifier (300 Watts, 1x15")

No longer available at zZounds
Admired by bass players for its nearly unbeatable intersection of price and value, this set up delivers outstanding higher range tone quality and clarity.

When a stack is too high and a practice amp just doesn't cut it, then this truly affordable wedge-shaped Bass Workstation with a powerful 15 in. special high-impact cone speaker is exactly right! With 300 watts of output horse power, your performance will never run out of breath. And it's fully loaded: one clean and one distortion channel with full control, a 7-band EQ with a revolutionary "See-What-You-Play" FBQ frequency indicator that immediately shows you which bass frequency corresponds with which fader on your EQ to allow you instant sound shaping, a switchable Ultrabass subharmonics processor and a compressor with adjustable threshold are just a few of the feature highlights. A musical limiter guarantees playing without distortion on the clean channel even at the highest volume levels, plus they've included a dual footswitch for channel select. Using external FX units is easy with the dedicated FX insert, and you can use the separate headphone output whenever you need to keep your music just to yourself.

Behringer BXL3000 Amp Customer Review

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Already got my moneys worth. Will probably buy better gear for gigging, but my BXL3000 is a keeper.
Sound
On its own...a nice clean tone to high gain OD if you want it. Not too shabby. I run a V-amp Pro through it, it reproduces these tones very well. (almost no difference though the amp or DI through the house)
Features
Love the EQ. Channel 1 I run clean, Gain at 2 w/ a little comp. Channel 2 I never use (but nice to have). Ultrabass I have NO need for. Foot switch (included) is nice for those who switch around.
Ease of Use
Easy Peasy:) Nothing complicated here.
Quality
For the price-point, well...what more could you ask for, REALLY! I use it & days a week (home practice, rehearsal, gigged 2 days a week at smallish venue) w/ NO problems. HA HA haters!
Value
At this price...try it. If you don't like it...send it back. Not everyones cup of tea, but a great value none the less.
Manufacturer Support
Never needed.
The Wow Factor
Be sure you know what your needs are. This is a great combo for MY needs. That's it.
