After years of using different bass amplifiers and speaker cabinets, on tour and in the studio, Jeff Waters has finally found his preferred combination: The SLT-300H amp and the TN-410 speaker cabinet.
Rugged enough to take on grueling all-season road trips, including flights, extreme weather conditions and general metal abuse, The SLT-300H delivers some serious power and clarity without the "breaking up" sound that is common to most amps and cabs when cranked. In fact the combination is almost too powerful! Grit and warmth comes in the form of your own custom mixing of tubes and solid state.

Taurus SLT-300H
Head bass amplifier
Taurus SLT 300H is a 300W/RMS bass head with a double input stage including both transistor and tube preamps. The transistor preamp ensures great dynamics while the tube one gives a warm, soft sound. Both preamps can be steplessly mixed offering the whole spectrum of desired sounds from crisp and clear to slightly overdriven tube. . There is also a very effective and easy to operate MLO system tone control to find the right sound quickly. The special design of the tone control enables revealing the character of the particular instrument meeting its both technical and musical parameters. Extra precise control over middle range is effected by a parametric equalizer and preamp filters switches. The bass sound can be very low but still impressively selective. Unique high quality optical limiter is built in for fast and noiseless operation.
SPECIFICATIONS:
| Power output: | 300W/4ohmRMS , 200W/8ohm RMS |
| Main features: | 2 preamps /tube and transistor / |
| Inputs: | PASSIVE & ACTIVE |
| Controls: | GAIN control with overload indicator. Operating with Gain and Input Mix player can obtain sound very close to acoustic bass or fretless bass guitar. The area around knobs marked by a break-off line indicates the region where the level of compression and distortion allows achieving the desired effect. |
