• Acoustic B300H

  
  As reviewed by William Pawley on 3/1/2013

  I bought this head at Guitar Center, Tallahassee, Fl. I was looking for a mid-power, low cost amp for my Bass and I found it in this amp. I play a Sterling (by Musicman) Ray 35 through it into a 2X10 cabinet and a 1X15 cabinet (both Peavey's) at a place my band usually plays every week. So far, this B300H has proved to be very dependable. It's been a workhorse as it gets used not only for my band but for an "O"pen Mic Night. Every other Bass player that has used it has been impressed at how good it sounds and also by how versatile on tone it is. The "Notch" filter has come in very handy while setting tones with different Bass guitars and players. Most use active pickups and the -10db pad comes in real handy there also. While it is only a 300 watt amp, it sounds a great deal more powerful than that. It's perfect for playing small to medium venues and the DI output is great for playing larger venues to pump the Bass through the FOH PA system. The Compression LED catches peoples attention watching the stage. It flashes, people notice it and wonder if the amp is going to blow up, I just have to chuckle about it and say no, it just shows the signal is being compressed. Most of the time though, I turn it off. On a side note, one night before playing, I plugged an Acoustic-Electric guitar into it just to see what it would sound like. I was surprised that it gave the guitar a good "acoustic" sound and not just another plugged in Acoustic-Electric sound. So, now occasionally, when there is a solo acoustic player, I will plug him into my amp instead of just running him/her straight to the PA as we usually would do. I'm pleased with my Acoustic B300H. It's powerful enough for what I use it for and it is versatile. Yes, I would recommend it.
