Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The V-4B is a 100-watt, all-tube bass head built around four preamp tubes and two power tubes. Its control section covers a range from articulate punch to fuller grind, with a 3-band EQ, adjustable midrange control, and bright switch for shaping the result. Multiple speaker outputs, balanced XLR DI, ground lift, and an effects loop give it workable paths for amplified live rigs and direct recording. The chassis suspension system is designed to reduce vibration affecting tubes and components during transport.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Live bass rigs using speaker outputs from 8 ohms down to 2 ohms.
- Sending the amp’s tube sound directly to front-of-house or a recording interface.
- Adding outboard effects through the built-in effects loop.
