Summary

From classic tube-powered stacks to modern lightweight, solid-state designs, all of these variants work to amplify your bass to boost the deep, thumping vibrations that we live for, but they accomplish this duty in many different ways. Understanding how they work from the inside out is the best path to remove any intimidation factor when approaching an amp, whether it’s in a music store, a practice room, or performance venue, so you can plug in with the knowledge and confidence to get the sound you want.

As a performer, recording engineer, and former Editor-in-Chief of Bass Player Magazine, Jonathan Herrera has deep experience with the wide range of amp options, and will guide you through learning the most important aspects of amplifiers and how they do their job in this 11-part masterclass.

Inside, you’ll learn:

  • What does a bass amp actually do?
  • Solid-State vs Tube Amps: Which is better?
  • What makes a Class D amp ultra-efficient?
  • How much wattage do you need?
  • Ultimate tone-shaping tips!
  • And so much more
