Warwick PA 300 Bass Power Amp Head
Warwick · amplifier
The Warwick PA 300 is a bass power amplifier, meaning it provides amplification only and requires a preamp or modelling unit ahead of it to supply tone shaping. That makes it a component for a rack or hybrid rig rather than a standalone amplifier. Independent coverage of Warwick amplification is limited relative to the company's bass guitars. It suits bassists building a rig around a separate preamp.
