Line 6 Gets the Low Down on Bass Amps
The first ever line of bass amps from Line 6, LowDown delivers an incredible array of dialed-in, stage-perfected bass tones. While most bass combos focus on volume and clean tone, LowDown amps offer five must-have effects and five killer bass amp models, that cover everything from funk to classic rock and beyond. Plus, the oversized, high-speed power amp has incredible articulation and bottom end punch that's ideal for live or studio work. Finally, there's a line of bass combos that give you great tone, performance, and flexibility all at an incredible price.

Line 6 LowDown 150 Bass Amp at a Glance:
  • Five amp models from modern to vintage
  • Synth bass setting
  • Onboard effects
  • Direct Output for recording or sending your sound to a house system

Five amp models from modern to vintage
LowDown delivers five carefully crafted amp models that can take you from modern punch to a thunderous, full-on assault! Each model automatically dials up a great sound that you can change to your liking and save into a preset using the channel memories on the front panel.

Line 6 LowDown Amp Models Include:
  • Clean - Inspired by the Eden Traveler, this model is all about clean, funk and fusion bass tone. It'll give you all the warm lows and punchy highs you need.
  • R & B - Inspired by a 1968 B-15 Flip Top, this model is a tribute to those late 60's and early 70's clean fat bass tones. It is the kind of tone you here on most Motown recordings, as played by a pioneering young James Jamerson.
  • Rock - This model is inspired by the '74 Ampeg SVT. This workhorse has appeared on innumerable recordings and arena stages worldwide. And now all the tone of the 300-pound behemoth 8X10 and head is available in your combo!
  • Brit - Based on a '68 Marshall Super Bass, this model delivers the kind of overdriven bass sound brought to us by late '60's British rock pioneers like Cream and The Who.
  • Grind - As the name would suggest, this is for modern rock lovers, Alice in Chains to Mudvayne and Rage Against The Machine. Based on a distorted SansAmp PSA-1 into an SVT in addition to a direct clean bass signal mixed in, this model gives you that angry, clear and punchy aggression that takes your sound to DEFCON 1.


Synth bass setting
Sitting at the back of the model knob is this secret weapon that turns LowDown into a '70s classic bass synth. From funk to modern rock, this synth model delivers incredible tones and tracks every dynamic move you make with ease!

Onboard effects
LowDown features a critical set of effects that no bass player should be without! You get a full time, vintage studio compressor model, and the Smart FX knob dials up three different heavyweight effects that are custom tailored for bass.

  • Envelope filter - Based on a Q-Tron, this is the baddest envelope filter on the planet. This effect can be heard on tons of major funk and rock tunes.
  • Octaver - Based on the EBS OctaBass, this effect produces a single note one octave below the pitch of the played note, adding a powerful new vibe to your sound.
  • Chorus - Based on the much loved TC Electronics Chorus. This is the most transparent, smooth and expressive chorus for bass ever built. Using it does not reduce your low end and it's especially beautiful on fretless bass.


Direct output for recording or sending your sound to a house system
The XLR Direct Output was designed for recording or sending your sound to a house sound system when you're playing live.

Customer Reviews
 Great Amp  
by Connor Smith from Dayton/Cleveland, OH, January 11, 2007
Music Background:  Recordist, Student


“I was very happy when plugging this guy in the for the first time. I bought it primarily for recording, so I plugged in the direct out before turning it on. I spent a few hours dialing through the models and trying out all the different tones. (I was using a passive bass). My favorite thing on the amp is the built in velcro tie for your power cord!

Wow. You can get this...” Read More
