Citation/mention fame — how often this gear is cited across artist rigs and gear discussion.The Darkglass Alpha•Omega 500 is a 500-watt bass amp head, the lower-power sibling to the 900-watt AO900 in Darkglass Engineering's Alpha•Omega line, sharing the same integrated Darkglass saturation and tone-shaping circuitry in a more compact, lower-power package. It's aimed at bassists wanting Darkglass's signature aggressive, harmonically rich tone with enough power for small-to-mid venue gigging without the AO900's maximum headroom.
The Randall RB100 is a 100-watt bass combo amplifier built for straightforward, reliable bass amplification at practice and small-to-mid venue gigging volumes. Part of Randall's bass amp lineup, it offers players dependable power and tone-shaping in a self-contained combo format.
