No
band sounds better than its bass player.
Bass
is the lynch pin between rhythm and melody …a
big responsibility. The essential ingredients of
great bass tone are Pitch, Punch and Power. Pitch,
so the frequency of the note is identifiable and
accurate, not the flubby rumble often heard. Punch,
so the attack of each note is a precise event in
time. And Power to deliver these two with authority
and headroom …and to disembowel the first five
rows!
Artists
often call to rave about the Bass 400+ after
switching from bi- or tri- amped rigs of up to a
thousand watts—exclaiming the joy of stepping
forward in the mix, even to the point of leading
the band. String definition so articulate that the
rhythm section locks together to become one machine
of unstoppable momentum.
Traditional
style rotary tone controls, which shape the Bass 400’s
all-tube character are fed from dual Inputs, one for
modern active basses and the other for classic passive
instruments. Each of these has its own separate tube
input stage and volume control. A seven-band Graphic
Equalizer further details the amp’s inherent musicality,
making subtle or radical tonal changes possible and
footswitchable.
No
less than twelve fan-cooled 6L6 output tubes deliver
500 watts of transient power peaks with cool reliability.
And this is no dirty dozen: this is a four-rack, twelve-pack
of pure mean punch. You’ll be happy to know that
tube life is commonly reported to range from three
to five years, and often longer.
Other
features include a 600 ohm XLR Balanced Out, Slave
Out, blendable FX Loop with dual patch points front
and rear, and a three-way switch for fan speed.
This
thoroughbred stud has been a mainstay in the Boogie
Stable for over two decades and remains a classic
in its own time …for good reason: Great tone
and musical power never go out of style.
