This is my main bass tone. Miles ahead of most of the free bass captures in Tonex. I really like the thickness and the colour of this capture. It suits everything from clean funk to metal. The tone itself, I find, is quite thick and "hairy", but in a pleasant way. Some could say that it lacks a little bit of clarity, but on the other hand Marshalls are not really known for clean, pristine tones. I really hope that Amalgam remember us bassists too! Please make similar things to this, I will instantly buy.
Well, it’s in the name of this one and it does what it says on the tin. The Plexi era Super Bass has been on stages behind pretty much every band in the 60’s and beyound and is still one of the main references for classic bass tones to this day.
Bold, full and round with enough bite on tap if needed is how this amp could be described. It handles lots of bass very gracefully even at higher gain levels and has a beautiful bubbly tone on the cleaner settings.
So there is no surprise we picked this beauty as our first ever release for Bass. The set consists of 24 AMP+CAB captures without pedals in front for you to tailor the tones further to your needs and genre specific requirements.
The amp was captured through an original 1968 Marshall 1960A with G12M25 75Hz Pulsonic coned CLSTN speakers, which is not the bass spec speaker, but sounds godly in this setting as well and was also the setup used with Bass cabs until 1967.
As usual there are 4 gain levels – clean, edge, crunch and dimed, dialed in for the usable range for bass guitar. And there are 6 EQ settings per each gain level. Check out the table in the product description pics for more detailed info on each capture included in the set.

A great bass capiture!
Very useable in a variety of genres and settings! Great tone! Unfortunately there’s only one Bass capture for us low toners. Very sad, because I would love to have some other classics like orange ad200, Ampeg svt or others.
A Different Flavored Marshall
The SB100 is a great addition to my bass amp models and also works very well as a fatter Super Lead without the high mids boost. I like to use it on guitar parts that need to pop but not overwhelm the landscape. I also love it with single coils.
