BP500

Hand-made Bass Guitar amplifier, featuring high power and low noise. The all tube pre-amp stage, based on four double triodes of excellent quality (1 x 5751, 1 x 12AX7WC, 1 x GT12AX7M and 1 x ECC802S), processes the incoming signal providing incredible dynamics and definition. 

The input is compatible with bass guitars with active or passive on-board circuits. An internal compressor–limiter can be activated by pushing the dedicated button, allowing the creation of overdriven sounds. The tone controls, very effective and easy to use, allow the artists to get exactly the sound they desire. The mid control further enhances the versatility of this excellent preamp.

The solid state power amps, thanks to our exclusive NCA processor and the heavily oversized power supply section, can reproduce that warm, round tube amp sound at any volume, without ever reaching the clipping point and keeping the original apparent dynamics.

This version of the bass guitar high power head BP500 delivers 750 W RMS of power, ideal for the most demanding bassist.
