Intelligent tone contouring
Dialing up killer bass tones is easier than ever with the TC Electronic BG250 bass guitar combo amp. The BG250's EQ section features intelligent tone contouring that takes the guess work out of finding great sounds. Turn the bass knob to the right to push the 100Hz range for punchy, full bass tone, turn it to the left and it cuts at the 80Hz range to help tame boomy rooms. The mid knob gives you the ideal rock sound when turned to the right, and funky scooped tones to the left. By turning down the highs you get a great Motown sound, while turning them up adds an airy high-end tone. Quickly dial in great tones with the TC Electronic BG250 combo bass amplifier!

Innovative TonePrint technology
TC Electronic's TonePrint technology allows you to add new effects to your amp within minutes. The BG250 combo bass amp comes preloaded with a great-sounding chorus effect, but what if you want something else? Some amps you have to hook up to a computer to start changing effects, but not the TC Electronic BG250. You don't have to plug anything in, just boot up the TonePrint app on your smartphone, find the effect you want, put the phone's speaker up to your bass's pickup and it will play a coded tone, then the amp will automatically update itself with the new effect. Very James Bond. Very cool. This is cutting-edge technology, and it's in a bass amp. You owe it to yourself to check out the TC Electronic BG250 bass guitar combo amplifier.

Perfect for all styles of music
The TC Electronic BG250 bass combo amplifier was designed to be extremely flexible. From clean, fat bass tone to crunchy, high-gain rock tones this amp has what you need. Use the Tube Drive knob to add everything from subtle warmth to grit and crunch to your sound. You also get access to great effects via TonePrint technology. Throw in a dash of chorus, a dirty octaver, a funky flanger, and more to really nail the style of music you're playing. You'll also love the built-in tuner. If you play tons of styles on each gig, the TC Electronic BG250 is the perfect bass combo amp for you!

BG250 is Top Notch

by Bill from Churubusco, IN
April 21, 2013
Music Background:
I don't know how TC did this. This combo just works and works very well. I picked this up on Saturday and worked a gig with it on Sunday afternoon. Plenty of volume but it is not a loud group. The... read more [+] BG250 handled everything well including quite a few low D's and Eb's and just sounded great. I did use some tube emulation but didn't use the Tone Print at all. I'm not a effects guy so I may never use the Tone Print but will use all the great warm, big, round sounds from this 34 lb. amp. I can only say that you will not be disappointed in this amp. It maybe won't fill a huge venue but for the gigs most of us do week after week this will cover what you need. close [-]

Considering the BG250?

Music Background: Live Sound, Student
I absolutely love it. It's mighty loud even at a low level. Tubedrive is great, TonePrint is flawless (which, by the way, only works with TonePrints specifically for the BG250). The tone contour takes... read more [+] a little bit of getting used to, but now that I've got it, it's incredibly helpful. Very light, very solid. No compressor, but TonePrints are available for that.

I highly recommend it if you've got $400 and you need a good loud amp. close [-]

Powerful, compact, lightweight

by Mike from Voorhees, NJ
December 7, 2012
Music Background: Recording/ Performing hobbyist. 50+ years of experience
Extremely lightweight compared to other units for the same power output at this price point. Solid sound from top to bottom. No farts at the low end like some of the other major manufacturers. Take ad... read more [+]vantage of all the videos on how to use this unit. Once you understand how to use them you will find that the controls are far more than just tone and volume. TonePrint works flawlessly, Tube drive delivers. Recently used this amp at a 150 seat venue, gain at 6, volume at 6, bass guitar set at 4, and had more room to go. This unit delivers on all levels. I no longer have to drag 90 pound amp around to get the sound I want. close [-]
