The Microtubes 500v2 redefines what bassists can expect from a compact 500W amplifier head, combining analogue warmth with cutting-edge digital technology. This powerhouse features Darkglass's custom-designed high-efficiency class D module paired with an all-analogue preamplifier, creating a foundation that maintains the organic feel players demand while providing serious power and versatility.
At the heart of this amplifier lies the legendary B3K and Vintage Drive circuits that have made Darkglass a household name among bass players worldwide. The newly integrated ultra-quiet 6-band graphic EQ gives you precise tonal control, while the built-in adjustable studio-grade VCA compression adds professional polish to your sound. The passive/active switch ensures compatibility with any bass guitar setup.
Connectivity options are comprehensive, featuring 1/4" Speakon jack, XLR output, headphone jack, and the newly added auxiliary input for practice sessions. The digital impulse-response cabinet emulator opens up new possibilities for direct recording and headphone monitoring, with memory for three impulse responses accessible via the Cab Select switch. A USB connector allows you to load custom IRs and assign compression settings across the three available modes, making this amplifier as flexible as it is powerful.
