Hartke HD15 Combo

I'm kind of experienced with electric guitars but this is my first bass amp. Bought this for bedroom practice, it obviously isn't loud enough for any rehearsals or gigs.

Build quality is good, didn't notice any blemishes, everything is working correctly. This thing delivers much more low end than I expected from low-budget 6.5 inch speaker combo. Tones that I get from it totally satisfy me as well as how the volume knob is working (HD15 isn't overwhelmingly loud for a bedroom, yet still it can produce some pressure as well as make really quiet sounds suitable even for practicing through speaker at night).

I would consider it perfect for me if there were FX loop and overdrive section but I think that's too much to ask for the price. Otherwise the amp is really good in my opinion.

Given the price/value ratio, it's a very great amp.
The build quality is pretty impressive.
The sound is good, although the amp produces a bit of "white noise".
The looks are very pleasing, but this is subjective, of course.
As a special bonus, it's not only your bass that you can use this amp with. You can equally play an electric guitar through it and have very warm "tube" sound. Could be perfect for clean jazz sound, especially if otherwise your guitar sounds too thin.
My only recommendation to the producer would be to put the LED-lit mains switch from the back (where nobody can see it) to the top or to the front of the amp. Or, even better, to replace this plastic switch with a more traditional metal toggle switch and a separate LED indicator.

C'est mon premier ampli basse et donc je n'ai pas beaucoup de recul mais j'en suis content. Evidemment, la puissance est juste suffisante pour un ampli de répétition en solo.
Je l'utilise avec une basse active (Ibanez SR500) et il fonctionne bien. Il n'y a qu'une entrée pour l'instrument et pas de sélecteur actif/passif, donc j'imagine que l'ampli se cale tout seul sur le type de signal qu'il recoit.

Il y a une entrée jack 3.5 pour la musique d'accompagnement et une sortie casque. J'aurais aimé que le bouton on/off soit situé sur la face avant plutôt qu'à l'arrière.

La qualité de fabrication semble bonne et robuste.

Rapport qualité/prix imbattable vu la réduction accordée sur l'ampli par Thomann lors de l'achat de mon pack avec la basse Ibanez SR500.
