Description

The Acoustic Image Double Bass Amp Contra S4 Upright Bass Combo is the double bass amp combo of choice for Upton Bass.

The Acoustic Image Double Bass Amp Contra S4 Upright Bass Combo provides transparent, powerful, and accurate sound reproduction across the full frequency spectrum so that your sound comes through with all its strength and clarity.

Accurate reproduction of your musicianship should be the standard. However, getting great sound on stage with a bass pick up and a microphone is notoriously difficult. Your bass has great tone and your bass pickup does the job getting all of it, but this is irrelevant without a great bass amp to bring your sound your audience. Enter the Acoustic Image Double Bass Amp Contra S4 Upright Bass Combo!

Power, flexibility, and sonic performance are difficult to find in a portable amp, but the Contra Double Bass amp has all of this at a reasonable price. The Contra essentially disappears on stage, radiating omnidirectional sound and highlighting your performance – not your equipment. We call this “musical amplification.”
