Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The ABM 300 EVO IV is a 300W hybrid bass head that pairs the ABM preamp with a 300W power stage. Its signal path includes one 12AX7 preamp tube and a nine-band EQ, alongside high- and low-instrument inputs. For a larger rig layout, it provides two Jack/Speakon speaker outputs, with a minimum 4-ohm impedance rating. A balanced DI, effects send and return, line input, and tuner output give the head dedicated connection points for recording and routing.
