Legendary Bass Tones

now in AmpliTube Custom Shop

The Rolling Stones '69 tour. Early Van Halen to AC/DC to Dave Matthews Band. The Motown sounds and that fabulous "round” bass tone. The gear behind AmpliTube SVX defined – and continues to define – the sound of electric bass.

So accurate it even shut down

Funny story… during the first phase of testing with the original engineers, one particular software model was being driven so hard that it "shut down." Completely stopped working. But the lead engineer approved the model on the spot.
