New Soundwave Bass Amps from Ibanez

SW65

Nashville saw the debut of three Soundwave bass amps designed for backstage, recording and small venue performance. The bantam weight SW20 features 20 watts with an 8" coaxial speaker and provides the punch, power and tone of a much larger amp. The two larger amps, the 35 watt SW35 with a 10" coaxial speaker, and the 65 watt SW65 with 12" speaker and piezo tweeter, offer more power and the performance flexibility of kickback cabinets. The SW35 and SW65 also feature a line out as well as effects send and return.

All three models also a feature 4-band EQ, a limiter, CD inputs, and a variable input with 10 dB gain. Remarked Hoshino USAs National Sales Manager,"the little SW20 does the impossible: it will satisfy both the price conscious and sound concsious bassist. Its bigger brothers, the kickback SW35 and SW65 kick majorwell, lets just say they more than take care of business."
