Warwick’s Versatile New Gnome Bass Amp Head Delivers 200 Watts And Weighs Only Two Pounds

Warwick introduces the Gnome, a compact new bass amp head that packs a lot of variety and sonic capabilities. From funk and R&B to slap and Jaco-inspired licks to straight ahead rock styles, the Warwick Gnome covers it all, as seen in this video walk-through:

Available in three different configurations, the Gnome is ultra-portable, lightweight and versatile. Street price begins around $150.00.

The Gnome delivers 200 watts of power, perfect for use on live performances and studio session. Remarkably, even with a metal chassis, the amp weighs only two pounds and easily fits in a carrying case.

The front panel features include input jack, gain, master, 3-band EQ and a headphone out. The back panel includes DI out, ground lift, speaker out and power switch.

The second model in the series is the Gnome i, which adds a USB connection in the back, allowing for recording straight into any computer without the needs for a special driver or software. The third model, the Gnome i Pro, includes the USB and adds another 80 watts.
