The Hartke TX300 is a bass amplifier which is versatile enough to produce both vintage clean tones alongside more gritty fuzz. Equipped with a powerful 300W power amplifier in modern class-D circuitry, the top has sufficient volume reserves for use in the rehearsal room and on stage, whilst the pre-amplifier can realise most desired tones. In addition to the 3-band tone control, the Hartke-typical Shape filter is also available, which can be used to emphasize certain frequency ranges. Warm overdrive and juicy tugging fuzz sounds can be recalled using the Drive Circuit. In addition, the integrated compressor helps to subtly boost the signal or to cut unwanted level peaks. The TX300 is also equipped with a balanced direct-out XLR format for convenient direct bass pick-up.
