The Bugera BVP5500 is a classic 550 watt value bass amplifier head with valve gain control and
9-band graphic EQ. The tone of the BVP5500 begins with two selected pairs of 12AX7 preamp valves
with their own Drive control. Plus when you want to rock the house you need serious power. The BVP5500
brings 550 of the cleanest fan-cooled watts you’ll ever hear or feel.
And since bass players do not live by watts alone, the BVP5500 is equipped with a stunning arsenal of
tone-sculpting tools, including a 3-band EQ with sweepable mids, ultra-high and ultra-low switches, and
a 9-band graphic EQ for the ultimate in tone control.
For expanded vesatility, there is an effects loop and an insert channel with preamp out and power amp
in connections. Use the included footswitch to kill the signal to the amp, allowing you to tune in
blissful silence and to activate/deactivate the graphic EQ.
