Hartke LX5500 500-watt Bass Amplifier Head

For the ultimate in punchy tone, compact gigability, and brute power, the LX5500 rocks a hybrid topology with a classic 12AX7 tube preamp section and Class D output circuitry. Onboard is Hartke’s acclaimed Tone Stack EQ with Bass, Treble, and comprehensive midrange control, which allows you to dial in the perfect tone for any musical setting, while the Drive control mixes in the ideal amount of grit.
