Wow, just wow... where has this amp been all my life!? I bought this as a "practice" amp for my bedroom but wanted to have the ability to use it during jamming and live performance; this amp is surprisingly compact, weighs 49 lbs but it has side handles making it pretty easy to move around. I have a Warwick Thumb 5-string and it sounds SO GOOD through this amp and this amp has no trouble with the low-B string. Having the mid-range contour is a "must-have" for me - I like the "Jaco" sound (it's actually closer to Michael Manring's tone on Thonk) and I can just dial it in. I also have (amongst others) a Martin BC-16e acoustic/electric bass (4 string) and I was blown away - in my experience most amps make an acoustic bass (when plugged in) sound like a regular electric bass... they seem to loose the "acoustic" quality... this amp makes it sound like an acoustic bass with a ton of volume, just a growling, organic, woody sound. And the volume... I can't turn it much past 1 when I am playing along with music in the bedroom, I mean you have 500 watts on tap so yeah, it's got plenty of power. I LOVE THIS AMP!!! Great job Hartke!!

A Sterling ray34 into this guy gets you like 99.5% of the way to law and order theme music territory for barely over a thousand bucks. Buy it quick before the world ends!

The specs say 250 rms, 500 peak. That makes this a 250 watt combo. At $700 for 250 watt bass combo there’s other’s that rate their wattage more reasonably.
