Mesa Boogie 6.B800DX.UK Subway Series Bass Amp Head - 800 Watt

A Classic Updated – Now at Sadek Music! The MESA/Boogie® Bass 400 was the apex of MESA’s storied tube bass amplifier line, dominating the '80s and '90s for players seeking boutique-class tube tone. With a supremely musical tube preamp, powerful 7-Band Graphic EQ, 12x 6L6 output section, and a robust power supply delivering instant punch and clarity, iconic bass tone was guaranteed. Top artists from jazz to stadium rock—including Sir Paul—relied on the 400 for its defined attack, clear pitch, and dynamic presence both on stage and in the studio. Today, MESA/Boogie updates this classic with the Bass-800D, now available at Sadek Music. Combining the beloved tube preamp architecture of the 400 with highlights from the Subway line, it adds warmer tube-enhanced character and subtle overdrive potential. The traditional Graphic EQ is replaced with simple, performance-focused voicing switches (Preamp Gain LOW/HIGH, DEEP bypass, BRIGHT bypass) and a HIGH PASS rotary control for dialing out sub-lows that can crowd a mix. Other modern enhancements include speakON® style locking Speaker Outputs, a versatile Impedance Switch (2, 4, 8 Ohms), HEADPHONE Output, MUTE jack, AUX IN and TUNER OUT, and USB DEVICE POWER.  The result is the legendary Bass 400 tube tone with added overdrive and the clarity, accuracy, and compact travel-ready design of the Subway Class D models. With the MESA/Boogie BASS 800D at Sadek Music, bassists can enjoy the iconic Boogie tube sound in a modern, portable, and performance-ready amp that inspires creativity on stage and in the studio.
