Description

The Hartke LH500 Bass Amplifier is a classic 12AX7 Class-A tube front-end design with a solid-state output.

The LH500 produces 350 watts when connected to a speaker system with an 8-ohm load, and 500 watts when connected to a speaker system with a 4-ohm load. With that kind of power, the LH500 is extremely loud and punchy. It’s front panel controls are simple and logically laid out starting with inputs for Passive and Active basses, Volume control, Bright switch, a musical equalizer section featuring Bass, Mid and Treble controls, plus Limiter switch and XLR Direct Out.

The LH500 packs a big punch in a portable, roadworthy package. A two-rackspace metal frame chassis, steel faceplate and handles allow for easy, safe transport from gig to gig. With the needs of modern bass players largely centered around volume and versatility, the LH500 is an ideal solution that gives you plenty of options to create the exact sound you’re looking for.
