Smooth Playability
A sound for every style. No matter what you play, the Chicago Bass lets you tailor your tone to fit a diverse range of genres and playing techniques. It all starts with the pickups. A powerful combination of passive single-coil and split-coil pickups open-up a whole world of sonic discovery. From fat, tight, warm, and rounded, all the way to bright and aggressive with plenty of bite. The Chicago's versatile pickup configuration gives you a diverse sonic palette.
Two dedicated Tone knobs (one for each pickup) let you dial-in the perfect amount of treble, with two Volume knobs for setting the level of each. You can even turn either pickup off completely if you want the sound of one pickup in particular. Your tone is in your hands, and from the moment you plug your bass in, you'll be able to glide between sounds with ease with complete tonal freedom.
Robust and Powerful 15w Bass Amplifier
The 15 Watt Electric Bass Amplifier by Gear4music features an 6.5" speaker in a robust speaker cabinet, for improved response and performance. The speaker is protected by an durable metal grille, completing a modern and purposeful look.
The control panel features rotary Presence, Master Volume, Treble, Middle and Bass controls to give you control over a wide variety of sounds. For that all important silent practise, the amplifier also includes a speaker-defeating headphones jack.
Reviews
"Jamming with the Chicago Bass Guitar is easy and enjoyable... it's capable, playable and has a street price that's equivalent to around five packets of strings. The Chicago Bass Guitar is perfectly good enough to gig with and has no serious vices." - Awarded 4/5 Stars by MusicRadar.com
