Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
The Cube 500 BLK belongs to the GR Bass combo family focused on lightweight and power, designed to deliver precise and modern sound without transport hassle. In a series available in several power ratings (350, 500, 800), this 500 W version aims for an ideal balance between volume headroom, versatility, and portability.
Who This Amp Is For
This combo is tailored for intermediate to advanced bassists seeking a reliable amp for rehearsals, studio, and concerts, with the option to feed a PA system via the DI. Its 1 x 12-inch format suits styles requiring solid low end and clear mix presence: pop, rock, funk, fusion, and jazz. The headphone output and auxiliary input also make it an excellent tool for home practice.
Features and Innovations
The GR Bass Cube 500 BLK offers quick handling with Gain and Master controls, complemented by a precise and musical 4-band EQ. The mids are particularly flexible thanks to 3 frequency positions for both Mid-low and Mid-high, allowing adjustment of the bass's place in the mix depending on the instrument, playing style (fingers, slap, pick), and cabinet. It also includes a Deep Filter to thicken the low spectrum, an effects loop (Send/Return) for pedals, an adjustable DI with Pre/Post switch and GND lift, as well as a mute switch. The fan features a Studio/Live mode to balance silence and cooling.
Sound
The Cube 500 BLK targets lovers of modern and defined tones, with a clear attack and well-controlled low end, typical of current transistor bass amplification. The 12-inch neodymium speaker delivers punch and solid foundation, while the tweeter (adjustable in 3 positions) allows switching from a softer high end to a brighter sound, ideal for slap, harmonics, and highly articulated tones. The extended EQ and Deep Filter enable a range from a wide, clean sound to a denser, "mix-ready" tone, all while maintaining excellent note clarity.
