Small amp, HUGE Sound
Comments about Aguilar Tone Hammer 500 Bass Amp Head:
Prior to buying this amp I was lugging around an Aguilar DB750 which sounds great but very heavy. I needed to find an amp that was light weight without sacrificing quality of sound. Weighing in at only 4lbs, I had to give this little amp a shot.
I've played this amp separately through an Aguilar DB410 (8 ohm), an Aguilar DB115 (8 ohm), and a Hartke 8x10 (4 ohm). In all 3 cases this amp delivered clean sound, heavy bass, cutting mids and pristine highs, I was able to dial in a variety of sounds including an Overdrive/distortion sound using the Drive knob.
If you are a fan of the DB750 / DB751, this little guy is a great alternative. i would never get rid of my DB 750 but I can safely say the Tone Hammer 500 will be my go to amp for gigging.
If you are bassist constantly on the go and need to lighten your load, I highly recommend this amp. Aguilar is a good company that makes great gear! Worth every penny.
Side note: I had to buy the soft case bag through Aguilar. While I wish it would have come with the amp, Im glad I picked it up. Case keeps amp safe and has room for all your speaker cables and power cord. nice handles and can me worn like a messanger bag.
