Combining massive output, advanced tone shaping, and convenient signal controls, the Acoustic B600H is an ideal bass amp head for dominating the stage or crafting your perfect studio tone.

The B600H amp has 2 inputs—one for passive pickups, the other for active—plus input gain and output volume controls. The clip indicator lets you know when your signal is overdriving the preamp, although with the harmonically rich distortion of the B600H's preamp circuit, that just might be what you want. The mute function coupled with the rear-panel tuner send lets you tune silently on stage. Add the 6-band EQ and notch filter into the mix and you've got total tone control. Generate deep, thundering lows, aggressive, punchy mids, or crisp, clean highs; any sound you want is yours to be had.

The rear panel offers an array of possibilities. Multiple speaker outs let you work with many cabinet configurations. The Direct Out with independent level control—which you can send pre- or post-EQ—is perfect for getting a solid DI signal to a console for live sound reinforcement or studio recording. The effects loop with mix control allows you to work with line-level, studio-grade gear for advanced tone shaping. Use the footswitch input to put the control at your feet for the complete bass rig.

Acoustic B600H 600W Bass Amp Head Features:

  • Power: 600 watts @ 2 ohms
  • EQ: 6-Band Fixed Frequencies & Sweepable Notch Filter
  • Channels: 1
  • Inputs: Dual 1/4" Inputs

I play in a Led Zeppelin tribute band and so I try to use gear that is either vintage or faithfully authentic to the classic 70's era. I had been using an Ampeg stack until it was lost in a fire. I did some research and discovered that John Paul Jones used Acoustic amps on Zeppelin tours from 1969 through '77. Since I admired his tone, I thought I'd at least check out an Acoustic amp before replacing the Ampeg. I wish I had used this from the beginning! This acoustic amp sounds amazing, and has plenty of power to spare. Although any experience musician will go through the PA system anyway, so I rarely go up to half on the volume.

Overall, I'm very impressed with this amp. It sounds amazing has held up through 8 months of weekly high-powered gigging so far.

I purchased a B600 head along with a B410 and B115 cabinet on salesman's recommendation. Have had to replace every component, the head's power light went out on our band's first practice. The left bank speakers on the 410 cab went with the final 2 songs on the last set of a show and then finally the 115 speaker just would'nt put out anything when I brought home the replaced head and 410 cabinet, so had to replace it. Now it's all functional but, well, we'll see. The price is right but don't push them too hard. I never had anything over about 1/3 playing my Fender deluxe precision. One good thing is that is was a no questions asked exchange, so I'll give 'em that much!!

I got this amp and was almost skeptical. I was completely wrong. this is the best amp ive ever had. i got this head along with the acoustic B410 400w 4x10 cabinet and it simply blew me away. there is so much range in the equalizer. i can put out anything from really punchy low and powerful to a really loud and sharp twang and everything in between. plus there is no buzz or anything when your plugged in. its silent when it needs to be and clean when your playing. simply amazing.

New Old School Acoustic

I bought this head as a backup for an Ampeg and was very impressed. I end up using it more than the ampeg since it is so portable. I used to use an Acoustic 370 "back in the day" and was a bit skeptical on the imported stuff, but for the price, the b600h pumps out good loud volume with huge bottom and no clipping. Worth the money. I prefer the look of sliders for the equalizer, but the knobs may be better since sliders usually break or fall off in transport.

It is time for Acoustic to reintroduce the 301 cabinet with the 1-18" folded horn cabinet. Now THAT would be a rig!

Own 2 with with 2- 810 cabs

Great head and very reliable.There isn't alot of stuff on the amp for frills. Every knob and switch has a real function. This is a bass amp not an airplane. I have never had to use the 2 head at one time. one head with move a foundation with 2 of the 810 cabs. refer to review of the 810 cab for current setting use and gear. Do agree with 12 Stones guy, road cases I agree would be nice and are available through a seperate vendor.(even a vinyl cover for any of the gear). Enjoy this one and play the rip out of it. I do wish the company had an actual company to contact and an e-mail only contact.
