Der Vollröhren-Boogie Bass 400+ Amp war ein moderner Klassiker, der über zwei Jahrzehnte lang von den talentiertesten Bassisten der Welt verwendet wurde. Von Paul McCartney bis Mark King, von Stanley Clark bis Jack Blades und Michael Anthony - der 400+ hat Grenzen und musikalische Genres überschritten und stand während seiner 20-jährigen Geschichte hinter echten Ikonen auf der Bühne. Heute ist es die preisgekrönte Mesa/Boogie Subway-Serie, die mit ihrem präzisen Klang, ihrer Wärme und ihrer Portabilität im Class-D-Bereich für Aufsehen sorgt.
In the late 1960s, Randall Smith, one of the San Francisco Bay Area's most famous amplifier repairers, was inspired to build his own amplifier model after learning to appreciate the tweed circuits of the 1950s. He loved their organic sound, the effective controls , and the way the sound changed smoothly from clean to distortion and back again when the gain control was turned.
In order to advance with his own amplifier designs and concepts, he settled in Pentaluma, California in 1969 and worked on further developing his amplifier model.
The typical, heavily distorted sound of his Mesa/Boogie amplifier model was initially the result of an electrically incorrectly dimensioned preamplifier. The company's founder, Randall Smith, was unsure whether the pre-amp would have enough power to drive the amplifier , so he designed it with four double triodes, of which the first seven triodes are still used today to amplification the input signal.
Many years later , Mesa/Boogie has become one of the major global players in the market for high-quality guitar and bass amplifiers and is a leader in the development of modern amp designs and circuits. The American company also holds several patents on special features and circuits, such as Multi-Watt™, Dyna-Watt™ and the Mesa CabClone™ Cab Simulator, which you are sure to come across when browsing through our selection of Mesa/Boogie products become.
