Don't underestimate the Little Bass Thing's small dimensions; this lightweight bass amplifier provides enough power and versatility for even the most discerning modern day bassist. Packed into its robust housing, you'll find 500W of Class D punch and presence, combined with a solid-state preamp.

Tailor Your Tone

The Little Bass Thing ensures you'll be able to tailor your bass sound quickly and precisely, thanks to a parametric mid control, paired with hand-selected bass and treble frequencies – all boasting 15dB of boost and cut. These allow you to achieve your exact desired tone, crafting an excellent sound from the ground up. 

Footswitchable compressor control can also be harnessed, providing you with simple access to a meticulously engineered, Class A optical compression circuit. Its response and side chain have been created especially for bass, and using just a single dial, you'll get access to brilliant dynamics and an old-school, warm feel.

Best of the Rest

And that's not all either. A studio-grade D.I. output and a buffered FX loop have been incorporated too, alongside a -6dB input pad switch that's perfect for hot pickups and active bass guitars.

Amp Heads

An amp head contains the core tone and power of a guitar amplifier without the built-in speakers, allowing you to pair it with the cabinet of your choice. This setup offers greater flexibility over sound and volume, as different speaker cabinets can dramatically change the feel and character of the amp. Amp heads are available in valve, solid-state, and hybrid designs, ranging from low-wattage studio models to high-powered touring rigs. They’re ideal for players who want a modular setup, precise control over their tone, and the ability to adapt their rig to different venues, cabinets, or recording situations.
