I really like the way the tool bass player sounds, enough that I learned how to play the parts. This amp ( and a pick ) will give me that percussive edgy sound. I also use it as a small P.A. at parties and run a Ipod / computer through through it. I even used it at my sisters wedding and sang through it. I did run my mic and my acoustic guitar through a RME fireface and logic first though, so it was a nice even signal going into it. Sounded really good! Just go in through the effects return to avoid the eq section. It also makes my house vibrate and really scares the dog............. Fortunately its not the brown sound if you know what I mean:) Review: First the good news - the amp itself gets 5 stars - it is everything that all the reviews you read on line say. It sounds great and has a lot of nice features I'm still playing with. Ifou can get one, you will be very pleased with it. Now the bad news - the packaging from Hartke gets 1 star. This is a very heavy amp, as advertised, yet Hartke seems to be coompletely unaware of the stresses their package goes through in transit. The first amp arrived badly damaged and even the replcement desertcart sent "Next-Day" had a couple of dings (Though tolerable... Hartke just places a lightly cardboard shrouded amp into a very cheap, flimsy, outer cardboard box with no extra padding, foam forms, or other isolation. The inevitable man-handling of the amp in-transit goes straight to the amp. So, go ahead and order the amp, but be prepared to deal with what is delivered - Carefully disassemble the box becasue you might need it to return the amp! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002OS9G6 | | Audio Wattage | 320 Watts | | Batteries Included | No | | Batteries Required | No | | Brand | Hartke | | Compatible Devices | Guitar | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (7) | | Date First Available | 7 August 2012 | | Includes AC Adapter | No | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 69.9 x 45.7 x 94 Centimeters | | Item Weight | 0.28 g | | Item model number | HMVX3500 | | Model | HMVX3500 | | Product Dimensions | 69.85 x 45.72 x 93.98 cm; 0.28 g | | Speaker Output Channel Quantity | 4 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Hartke - **Compatible Devices:** Guitar - **Item Weight:** 0.01 Ounces - **Number of Bands:** 4 - **Output Wattage:** 320 Watts ## Images ![Hartke VX3500 Bass Combo - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/810VX1vmmaL.jpg) ![Hartke VX3500 Bass Combo - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51rh-NjxoxL.jpg) ![Hartke VX3500 Bass Combo - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51vAMAq+MIL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Where is the amplifier made?** A: These are made in China. **Q: does it have a balanced out anywhere?** A: It has a direct XLR output, with a pre/post EQ switch so you can pull the signal before or after it runs through the compressor and EQ on the amp itself.

Also the add says a 3 year warranty and that is not the case its a 1 year just like everything else. If I had known it at the time I would not have bought it here but elsewhere so I could get a 3 year warranty. Amazon please change this part of your add. 4 Stars only because it sound great. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/150392122-hartke-vx3500-bass-combo](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/150392122-hartke-vx3500-bass-combo) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-06*
