SOLD Acoustic Image Clarus 1 Series II

Hi. Up for sale is an AI Clarus 1 Series II amp head. Excellent condition. No dings. Comes with the AI Carry bag, with a pocket for the power cord and speaker cable.

These are great for upright and electric bass. Two inputs, High Z and Low Z. High for upright or Piezo pickups, low for Mag pickups. A rather useful and uncommon control knob: High Pass filter and Notch filter. More common control knobs and features: 4 band EQ; FX Send/Return; Direct Out with Ground switch; 2 Speakon connectors. Output Power >200 W @ 4Ω, >300 W @ 2Ω.

Plenty of power for your small jazz combo gig. Probably not so much for Heavy Metal or Punk.

These are known for the jazz sound, and for being well suited upright bass. My Robb Allan MB2 sounds fantastic through this amp, into a Baer ML112, or into an EA Wizzy 10. Warm, round, elegant, with punch when you need it.

PayPal preferred. Shipping within the USA only.

Thanks Low. I'll update the post.

 

Hi JC! I’m holding this for you! For a week!

 

I can tell you, my Rob Allen MB2 sounds the sweetest, warmest, thickest with this amp. Usually out of a EA Wizzy 10, but on outdoor gigs a Baer 112. I get compliments. Some actually on my playing. Well ok mostly on the playing, but the tone is just grand. I also have a GB Shuttle 9, and that is really nice. I can dial in a sweet warm tone, but it's just not the same as the AI. I've had no other nibbles on this amp, so it looks like it will be yours. HANG IN THERE! The HPF and the Notch Filter are also grand. There are just some rooms out there that have a harmonic frequency that grabs an upright and wreaks havoc. Between the HPF and the Notch Filter, you can tame that beast. Some other amps have the HPF, but I have not seen the notch anywhere else. i have a couple Fdeck HPF's, and there's no need for them with the AI.

You play out of an EICH? Serious amp there! Yet colored. I don't know much about them. I guess, same class as the Jule and Reiner amps?
