Dial in your sound on the Hotone Thunder Bass mini head's 3-band EQ and start rocking. With 4-16 ohm impedance, it pairs with a wide variety of cabs.

Hotone's Thunder Bass, which we all guessed, is an amp head for bassists. Based on the Ampeg SVT, Hotone somehow got all the big thunderous sound into a mini-sized amp.

Whether you are the bassist in the spotlight or the one keeping the pulse in the shadows, this solid amp will suit. Flexible and dynamic, it's as stable as the most stable member of the band.

It is only 5 watts...and it's small...hard to believe exactly HOW small this thing is. BUT - the tone is sweet. I put it straight through an Eden D112XLTN 8 ohm cab and played my 1998 Fender P Bass trough it, and I was fairly impressed. I'm not really sure how favorably it stacks up to the SVT as it claims, but it still sounded pretty darn good. Obviously, at only 5 watts, it's not going to keep up with a hard-rocking band either live or in rehearsal, but for low-volume jams, acoustic applications, back-stage warm ups, travel rig, learning new material or recording it may just be a useful tool. I plan to put it to use in my studio although I have not yet tried the line/headphone out function yet; I can see it replacing the rack preamp I currently use for recording. Overall, no big bang - just the quiet assumption of its place in my stable as a slick and useful little gizmo.
