Aguilar Amplification is pleased to announce the amPlug3 Tone Hammer headphone amplifier.
Drawing inspiration from its legendary namesake, the Aguilar amPlug3 Tone Hammer brings the warm, rich, and dynamic sound of the Tone Hammer amplifier to the compact, portable amPlug 3 platform – perfect for capturing Aguilar tone on the go.
Featuring analogue circuitry, the amPlug3 Tone Hammer delivers a true amp experience with dual channels (Clean and Drive), three integrated effects, and built-in rhythm functionality to keep bassist’s practice sessions inspired.
With Chorus, Reverb, and Compression effects, the amPlug3 opens a broad range of tonal possibilities. The chorus effect, inspired by Aguilar’s Chorusaurus pedal, delivers vocal-like qualities and lush textures, while the short, room-style reverb adds depth and ambiance. Modelled in line with Aguilar’s TLC compression, the amPlug’s clean and musical compression circuit helps smooth out dynamics for a polished tone.
The AUX jack allows players to practice along with backing tracks, ensuring they are always gig-ready, and the TRRS cable allows for direct recording to devices whenever inspiration strikes. The Aguilar amPlug3 Tone Hammer also features a drum machine, allowing bassists to play along with built-in rhythm patterns with adjustable tap tempo.
Whether at home, on the road, or in the studio, the amPlug3 Tone Hammer ensures Aguilar’s legendary tone is always within reach. With a retail price of £59.95, the Aguilar amPlug 3 Tone Hammer is available to order now in the UK & Ireland from exclusive distribution partners, Barnes & Mullins – www.bandm.co.uk
