From Our Research Team:

Huge Bass Tone in a Tiny Little Box!

The Orange Terror Bass 500 gives you the same lunchbox-size portability as the original Tiny Terror. If you're not already familiar with the staggering amount of power and killer tone these little amps kick out, then prepare to be blown away! Despite its small footprint, the Terror Bass 500 outputs easily enough juice to shake the foundation of any small or midsized venue, making it a perfect amp for bass players who gig out a lot. A 12AX7-based tube preamp section gives your sound that fat, well-rounded contour, and a super-efficient class D power amp puts out plenty of power without kicking up the heat or adding considerable weight. In fact, the whole Terror Bass 500 weighs a mere 11 lbs., virtually redefining the portable bass head.

Best customer service Ive ever encountered. My guitar arrived ahead of the date it was supposed to, in flawless condition. Played well right out of the box. I will be buying all of my gear from you, from here on out. You made me feel like I was ordering a custom guitar, just for me. I was treated like a valuable customer.

Fantastic bass head that I sounds great with everything set flat to start with (I really don't need to mess with the EQ much with this head).

Also, this is only head I found with a switch to allow 4 or 8 ohm operation at a full 500 watts. This adds so much more versitility when matching different cabinets. close [-]
