Bassguitar head with the power of 500 W from the Rootmaster series. The amplifier has been developed to maintain a deep low end, defined mids and transient highs delivering its output into a 4-ohm load. Ashdown Rootmaster heads are the perfect choice for working bassists looking for power and features without the weight. The pre-amp includes a passive and active input jack socket for use with high and low output instruments, this sets a clear signal path to the input control enabling you to fine tune your input level using the trademark Ashdown VU meter. The head also features a 5-band EQ, on-board one-knob compressor, FX loop, DI output, valve emulated overdrive and sub-harmonic generator to add fatness to your tone. These features can be foot-switched via an FS 2 footswitch (sold separately). The dimensions of the amp are 86 x 314 x 235 mm and the weight is 5 kg.
