Tone Hammer 350 : A dream amp for 99% of the bass players out there!

I was in the market for a small amp after owning a few (Gallien MB200, ATS LBA500, Ashdown Little Giant 1000, Markbass LittleMark II and a few others). It's the first Aguilar product I own and I must say it's up to expectations... looks well built and look, feel and sound are just high-end.

It's not an amp full of features like compression, tone-shaping extras like contour or whatsoever - it's more a simple device for the gigging bassist.

I like it... my only gripe (and it's very personal and only due to my taste) is that the high frequency control isn't set on the right frequency and isn't very powerful (or at least, not powerful enough to make the amp bright like some more "hi-fi" competitors). The mid controls is nice and the drive is very useable. Certainly worth the price. I'm not regretting taking the 350 against the 500, it's certainly loud enough for most situations (if not for all of them) and I like the low weight and small dimensions. Would I buy it again? Yep. MAYBE if I had to swap it for something I'd like to try the SWR Headlite, just 'cause I like bright tones but I wouldn't go back to chinese made amps like the MB200 - small but crappy in both tone and sound.
