Bass Heads Are a Key Factor in Developing Your Tone
Many factors go into crafting your bass sound, and one of the biggest pieces of the puzzle is your bass amp head. Different technologies produce signature tonal qualities. Tube heads are known for being fat and warm, smooth with a bit of overdrive, and naturally compressed, whereas solid-state amps are sought after for their ability to produce a super clean, glass-like tone. The world of hybrids aims to allow you to enjoy a little of each. Wherever your tone tastes travel, Sweetwater carries a vast selection of bass amp heads from modern and legacy manufacturers.
Modern Head Features Make Gigging Life Easier
Our selection of bass amp heads includes a host of potential must-have features, including tube-driven direct injection (DI) outputs and buffered effects loops, classic amp emulation with vintage voicings, enhanced midrange shaping, and outputs for ganging multiple heads and cabs. Features like these give you a ton of flexibility in building your bass rig and fine-tuning your sound for any genre or song.
How to Transport Your Bass Head
If you’re going for a beefier bass amp head, consider getting your own personal dolly (drummers don’t count) because some larger models weigh up to 100 pounds. Thankfully, we also have a variety of very sweet-sounding bass heads down around the 25-pound mark and even smaller. Your shoulder sockets will be forever grateful.

If you’re looking for a specific tone or set of features, don’t hesitate to give us a call. Our Sales Engineers love talking bass amp heads.
