Tech 21 VT-500

The VT Bass 500 is a 500-Watt bass amp head, with an all-analog SansAmp pre-amp and Class D power amp. It is formulated with the same proprietary technology as SansAmp Character Series VT Bass DI pedal. The unique Character control sweeps through decades of some of the most distinctive bass amp tones on the planet. Drive adjusts the overall amount of gain and overdrive, similar to when the output of a tube amp is being pushed. A Blend control allows you to blend the direct instrument signal with the SansAmp Tube Amplifier Emulation circuitry. The Bite switch activates a presence boost, which tightens up the sound when you are in distorted settings. It also adds definition to your notes when playing in cleaner settings.

Super hlava, super zvuk a nízka hmotnosť :) A nemôžem úplne súhlasiť s Robertom, ten výstup na reprobox je kombinovaný speakon aj jack ;)

Ludia, tato hlava je brutalna. Ak nechcete len tupy basovy amp bez tvare a vyrazu (takych je zial 95%), ale riadnu masinu s gulami a charakterom, ktora sa nestrati v ziadnom style (hlavne v tvrdsich), chodte do toho. Stlacis bite, character vytocis od stredu kamkolvek doprava, pridas stredy, gain a blend das podla chuti a odfuknes gitaristov aj bubonara. Frekvencie su uplne vychytane, korekcie tiez, nemas problem urobit velmi podobny zvuk ako s B3K. Proste cele dobre. Ukazok najdes na youtube dost, ale treba hladat ukazky preampu (VT Bass DI). Hlava ma z mojho pohladu len 2 nevyhody. 1) mali ju urobit ako VT Bass Deluxe, t.j. s programovatelnymi presetmi. To by clovek nepotreboval ziadne ujoviny v boarde, stacila by hlava a footswitch na pokrytie akejkolvek nalady. 2) repro vystup je len speakon, to tiez mohli skombinovat s 6,3 jackom.
