Full-sized Bass From a Pint-sized Amp!
With all the gear you've already got to haul around every time you've got a show, the last thing you need in your rig is 40-pound amp head, right? That's what's so cool about the ultra-lightweight Gallien-Krueger MB500 bass amp. This bass head comes loaded with all the perks of a full-sized bass head minus the bulk and extra poundage. We're talking about 500-watts of rich and full bass tone from an amp that weighs less than 4 lbs. Plus, the MB500's small enough to fit in your gig bag! And that's not all. The Gallien-Krueger MB500 sports a super-musical 4-band EQ that's armed with a character-defining contour control. Need to get loud? No problem! Just kick in the Boost control and you've got the extra juice you need. And to keep your sound in line, the MB500's got both a 10dB pad on the way in and a switchable limiter on the way out. Isn't it time you upgraded your bass rig?
