This amp was made for recording
Despite the fact that 40 watts makes the Bronco 40 a formidable bass amplifier live, you can tell that Fender made it for recording, just by taking a closer look at the back panel. That's where you'll find an XLR output waiting to be plugged into your recording rig. And when you record with the Bronco 40, it goes from being a conveniently portable little amp to a bass blasting monster!

What's more, you also get 12 incredible effects you can use to dial in the perfect tone. Fender also knows how important compression is to getting great bass sound. That's why they gave the Bronco 40 a dedicated 1-knob compressor. Think of a tone, and this fantastic bass amp will help you find it.

Perfect for my uses

by T. A. Nelson from Kansas City, MO

Music Background: Project recordist, songwriter, performer
Four stars = great, so Bronco gets that. I teach guitar and bass at my home; record guitar/bass/keys etc. on Mac-based system; play out a bit, too. I was looking at competitors' products and found... read more [+] that Bronco 40 had the most useable range of convincing modeled sounds, was strong at studio and home volumes and recorded very cleanly quietly whether mic'd or direct. XLR out to house board yields eye-opening volume potential. Terrific value; and Fuse software and bonus Abelton free version are icing. I have no hesitation in recommending Bronco 40 for uses along these lines. close [-]
