Fender Super Bassman Pro Head Black

Overview

The Fender Super Bassman Pro Head is a 300-watt all-tube bass amplifier built for players who need serious headroom and flexibility on large stages or in demanding studio environments. Its dual-channel design blends classic Fender voicing with modern control, offering both a traditional passive tone stack and a more aggressive, contemporary active circuit.

With a full tube complement and Fender’s Automatic Bias system, the Super Bassman maintains consistent performance while reducing maintenance concerns. Features like a selectable speaker mute for silent recording and a versatile XLR output make it equally practical in live and studio settings, giving players access to a wide range of tones without sacrificing usability.
