Powered by Aguilar's coveted preamp, this limited-edition gold Tone Hammer 500 delivers warm, rich, tube-like tone in a lightweight, solid-state package. Featuring Aguilar's proprietary Drive control and a flexible three-band EQ, the Tone Hammer 500 will give players a legendary sound while fitting into the accessory pouch of most gig bags. This makes it the perfect choice for musicians on the go. This preamp delivers 500 W continuous @ 4 Ohms and 250 W @ 8 Ohms and features bass, treble and fully sweepable midrange controls. The Drive control utilizes Aguilar’s proprietary AGS circuit which adds subtle distortion and midrange punch to the sound.
