Tonal profile

300W 1x15 solid-state bass combo with a tweeter, three-band EQ and Punch, Mid-shift and Bright switches, plus a TransTube gain boost that mutes the tweeter for a rounder overdriven voice. Loud and thick with a deep, slightly hyped low end from Peavey's psycho-acoustic bass enhancement, and a strong low-mid punch when the Punch switch is in; the tweeter adds a clanky slap top that the gain boost deliberately removes. DDT limiting, chromatic tuner and an XLR DI make it a gig-ready one-box rig.
