Members TRevMFB Posted September 10, 2008 Members Share Posted September 10, 2008 Selling my Hartke 5500 bass head, has lived in a rack most of its life very little hours on it. It was used as a backup head and practice head for a little bit. The blending of solid state and tube preamps, with an adjustable compression let you taylor the input for just the right sound. The selectable EQ is great and the high and low roll off give you that extra control without having to readjust the EQ. Original head box and power cable is included. This is a great deal, and hard to find rackmount ears for this unit. I had to order the ears directly from Samson/Hartke and took nearly 3weeks to get them.

Members TRevMFB Posted September 12, 2008 Author Members Share Posted September 12, 2008 would this closer to vintage or modern tone? honestly it could pretty much do any tone. I've read some reviews where some people prefer this amp over an Ampeg SVT 4pro. it was pretty comparable to the svt3pro we used to use, always ran a Sansamp inline with both. we just use the Marshall Silver Jubilee bass head that's underneath the Hartke, which is extremely reliable, so there's no need to keep the Hartke anymore.
