The Gallien Krueger MB Fusion 500 is a lightweight bass amp head that delivers real valve tone and 500 watts of power in a lightweight 2.5kg unit. It is designed to be simple to use, whilst still delivering great flexibility and the ultimate performance. With two foot switchable channels and multiple connections, the MB Fusion 500 is ready to be paired with the cabinet of your choice and start amplifying your bass guitar tones to the stage or in the studio.
The MB Fusion 500W features 3 x 12AX7 preamp valves which provides a rich musical response and complex harmonic overtones. The preamp valves feed a lightweight 500 watt power section giving you both warm tube tones and efficient amplification. The Fusion MB 500 features multiple bass-specific EQ controls to easily tailor your sound to exactly how you require, and the preamp gain can be turned up to deliver a more overdriven sound. The Variable Q Equalizer ensures that the EQ retains a musical response even at the most intense settings. A master limiter and -10db pad ensures that your signal won't clip, whilst the footswitchable channels allow users to swap between two different gain levels quickly.
500 watts of power ensures that the Gallien Krueger MB Fusion 500W can cope with a variety of different cabinet sizes, depending on the volume level and projection that you require. The dual speaker outputs, line-out/headphone-out, and DI XLR allow you to use this amp with various speaker cabinets, headphones, or even as a direct send to a mixing desk or recording device. An FX loop provides the ability to use your own external effects devices and the tuner-out gives the ability to tune silently. These connections make the MB Fusion 500W ideal for a range of applications including gigging, rehearsing, recording and practicing at home.
The MB Fusion 500 Head features illuminated controls for clear visibility in dark environments. The dual function controls have a different colour light so you can clearly see which mode you are currently operating in. The MB Fusion 500 also includes font-mounted bars for protection of the controls and switches, along with a temperature controlled fan ensuring that the cooling system only operates when absolutely necessary. The rugged aluminium chassis ensures that the MB 500 is ready to withstand the rigours of the road.
