Blackstar Unity 500 Bass Amplifier

The new Unity Pro Bass System’s deceptively simple controls allow you to quickly and easily create your tone, with rock solid bass, detailed dynamics and innovative features in a compact package.
Blackstar’s unique Response control allows the player to choose between the sound and feel of three classic power amp stages, shaping compression, natural drive and dynamics. Combined with three distinct preamp voicings and a 4-band semi-parametric EQ, Unity produces infinitely flexible bass tone and exceptional feel, whatever your playing style.

From the organic response of classic valve amps, to a transparent clean platform, Unity brings together the ultimate in bass tone.
