OWNER'S MANUAL
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION –
The NEO-PAK 3.5 bass amplifi er has been designed with our unique ULTRA
LIGHT unifi ed design process, yielding a 350 watt professional duty high powered tour-class bass guitar amplifi er
weighing only 8-1/2 pounds! This compact design blends the best of analog and digital platforms to produce the
ultimate in warmth, punch and power.

circuitry. The power amp section is our classic class A/B topology with exceptional power and tone characteristics.
The power supply is state-of-the-art digital Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS), which does away with the weight of
a traditional power transformer. The SMPS provides an exceptionally light yet stout power source that is the heart of
the NEO-PAK's dynamic, quick response.

with LED indicator, 12AX7 Tube Preamp with variable Input Gain, 3 switched Signal Shape fi lters with LED

duty discrete output stage power amplifi er with two 1/4" speaker jacks and two Neutrik NL-4 "Speak-On"™ speaker
