Congratulations on your choice of the v WalkAbout Bass Amplifi er! This compact and powerful little brother to the M-Pulse 600
and 360 delivers all the tone and most of the features in a package that’s bound for the open road.
At the heart of this giant killer is a robust 300 watt Simul-State power section that will handle most clubs and smaller venues with
surprising headroom. This tube driven mosfet design combines the best qualities of both tube and solid state technology to achieve a
lightweight, reliable platform that is supremely musical. This toneful power is metered out with the MASTER control, and can be used
to drive any two speaker cabinets via the two SPEAKER OUTPUT jacks, with a combined overall load of 4 Ohms being the preferred
impedance. Should you fi nd yourself in larger venues, an XLR Balanced Direct output with a convenient Front Panel DI LEVEL control
enables you to send your signals to the board for front of house reinforcement.
The WalkAbout Preamp is a four stage, all-tube, fi nely-tuned instrument of shaping power for bass. The signal path begins with
the Input jacks and both ACTIVE and PASSIVE instruments have been provided for with a dedicated jack. The front end GAIN control
determines the amount and color of preamp signal and/or drive you wish to push through the rotary Tone Controls. Active shelving
