BASSMAN is modeled after the mighty, mighty ’59 Fender Bassman™ amplifier—many guitarists’ favorite amp. It has a full set of amplifier controls, along with a selection of impulse responses from the speaker cabinet using different high-end mic and preamp combinations. Includes controls for the head and the cabinet, which can be used separately or in combination with other amps.

PAGE TWO CONTROLS
