Bass Combos

A bass combo amp is a single, integrated unit that combines both the amplifier head and speaker cabinet into one convenient package. This contrasts with a “stack” setup, which has separate amplifier head and speaker cabinet components. 

For rehearsals, studio recording sessions, or small club performances, electric and upright bass players typically use a “combo” amplifier, which combines a preamplifier, tone controls, a power amplifier and a speaker (or multiple speakers) in a single cabinet
