The new XS800H 800-Watt bass amplifier and XC808 800-Watt bass cabinet have been added to Yorkville's XS Series line of tube preamp driven bass amplifiers.

The XS800H has a switchable tube/solid state (FET) input with a separate parallel tube overdrive circuit, and a 'wet / dry' balance control that allows the player to set the blend of overdriven signal to clean bass tone. In short you can add as much grunge or as little 'tube warmth' to the overall bass sound as a player requires, while maintaining a full 'clean tone' for definition and clarity.
