Convenient, highly portable and remarkably cost-effective,
ultra-small mini amps have gained great popularity as first amps or
"practice amps." The convenience of battery power and their space-saving
ease of use only add to their appeal. The casual player may enjoy
keeping a mini amp in the office, in the bedroom, or may carry one for
inspired performing at any time. Even professional musicians enjoy these
amps for warming up in the dressing room.
The popular AC1 RhythmVOX went well beyond the expectations
of a typical guitar amp, introducing rhythm functionality, a sound
quality that far exceeded its size, and even a tuner. The new AC1
RhythmVOX Bass is the highly-anticipated bass version that's designed on
these same crowd-pleasing principles. Featuring a broad base of 66
diverse rhythm patterns, it greatly aids in the most essential aspect of
bass playing --- keeping the rhythm. The Song pattern has been refined
specifically for bass, providing a great way to enjoy jam sessions.
Powerful Rhythms; Flexible Control
The ten Rhythm Patterns include not just standards such as 8
beat, 16 beat, and blues; but also funk, reggae, and even complex
irregular patterns. There's also one Song pattern containing an
extended, multi-measure drum part. In addition, each Rhythm Pattern and
Song Pattern provides six types of variation, for a total of 66 rhythm
variations. The tempo and volume of each rhythm pattern can be
intuitively controlled, and you can quickly recall the rhythm pattern
you want.
Enhanced Tone, Superior Performance
The AC1 RhythmVOX Bass has a lot to offer as a bass amp. Two
sound variations, Bright and Normal, cover the tonal range you need for
any playing style or genre. In addition, you can obtain a
natural-sounding bass tone by turning the Drive knob toward the left of
the 12 o'clock position, or a modern driven tone resembling a pre-tube
sound by turning the knob toward the right. A pair of three-inch
speakers delivers a full-bodied sound.
Packed with Extras
In addition to the cool rhythms and great sound, the AC1
RhythmVOX Bass provides numerous features indispensible to any bass
player. A dedicated E-string tuner keeps you in tune at all times. Use
the headphone jack for private practice at any hour! Connect your MP3
player or other external audio source to the AUX IN jack and jam along
with songs from your favorite band. Convenient battery power lets you
enjoy all these features, any time, any place! An optional AC adapter is
also available.
