From Our Research Team:

Fender Sound, Solid-state Power, Light Weight!

The FENDER® Bassman® 250/210 is an elegant piece of bass amplification designed to deliver full power through a compression driver horn and two great sounding 10" drivers. Designed to be portable, yet loud enough for gigging, the Bassman 250/210 has a high-quality XLR output, great for recording or amplifying a live signal. The full horn attenuator allows you to achieve a range of tones from bright thumb-style playing (full horn) to warm upright bass tones (horn off) and anything in between!

Fender Bassman 250/210 Combo Amplifier at a Glance:
  • A great combination of power, speaker and tone shaping in a compact amp!
  • Built-in compressor plus 4-band EQ and "Contour" controls
  • Pad, line out and other features for pro use
  • Ruggedly built for action

A great combination of power, speaker and tone shaping in a compact amp!
Don't let the Bassman 250/210's light weight - only 63 lb. - fool you! This is a powerful bass amp, with 250 watts of solid-state power. The two 10" Fender Special Design Eminence USA PRO speakers deliver tons of tone. Plus, the Bassman 250/210 features a compression driver high frequency horn with its own attenuator to capture thumb-style playing!

Built-in compressor plus 4-band EQ and "Contour" controls
The Bassman 250/210 amp gives you plenty of tone-shaping power. The built-in compressor has a fixed threshold and adjustable ratio to provide a solid signal without overloads. The special "Contour" control is a variable scoop applied to the MID section for slap-style playing. In addition, you've got 4-band EQ control: Bass, Low and High Semi-Parametric Midrange (Freq/Level), and Treble.

Pad, line out and other features for pro use
Recording with the Bassman 250/210 is easy with the included XLR balanced line out. It features an independent level control, a pre/post switch and a ground lift. The Bassman 250/210's 6dB input pad handles high-output basses. You can control the high frequency horn with its 3-position attenuator switch (Full, -6dB, Off). A mute switch keeps your amp ready, while the built-in effects loop lets you connect your favorite pedals. Plus, the Bassman 250/210 includes a tuner output for silent tuning and a headphone jack that automatically cuts the speaker signal.

Ruggedly built for action
Your Bassman 250/210 will hold up for the long run, with a real wood cabinet! The black carpet covering, black metal grille and brushed aluminum control panel will look great for years. The Bassman's removable casters make it easy to roll into the club, while its spring-loaded handles provide smooth carrying. And at only 39 lb. the Bassman 250/210 will make your bandmates like you better!

So add it all up: great Fender sound, flexible tone shaping, pro features, and sturdy design, and you'll realize that the Bassman 250/210 is the ideal choice for steady gigging or weekend use!

Excellent Tonemonster

Music Background: Bass Guitarist
I tried this Fender Combo out in a local store and it sounded killer. Its got great mid tone control. You can get plenty of nice tones and is pretty loud for a 210 combo. The input jack is a little... read more [+] weak, but this combo is A+ overall in my book. I ordered mine from here, Sweetwater, good service and the candy is not bad too. ;) close [-]

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.
