The Hartke LH1000 is a bass powerhouse, blending a warm, classic tube preamp with a muscular solid-state output. This amp delivers 1,000 watts of raw power, giving you enough headroom for any stage while providing the tonal flexibility to shape your signature sound. It's built for the working musician who needs reliable performance, road-ready toughness, and the versatility to handle any genre, from punchy funk to deep, resonant rock.
At its core, the LH1000 features a classic 12AX7 Class-A tube preamp circuit that imparts a rich warmth and dimension to your bass tone. This is where the magic starts. But the real control comes from the simple, intuitive front panel, which lets you dial in your sound without a fuss. It's designed for quick adjustments, so you can spend less time tweaking knobs and more time locked into the groove.
Shape Your Signature Sound
The LH1000 gives you a straightforward but powerful set of tone-shaping tools that make it easy to find your perfect sound. Whether you need a subtle enhancement or a dramatic tonal shift, this amp has you covered.
Classic Tube Preamp: The 12AX7 Class-A tube front-end is the heart of the LH1000’s tone, providing the warmth and richness that only a real tube can deliver. It’s the foundation for a dynamic, responsive playing experience.
Flexible Tone Stack: The Treble and Bass Shelving EQs let you dial in your foundational tone, while the mid-peak control offers precision for cutting through a dense mix or scooping your mids for a modern slap sound.
Brite and Limiter Switches: Need a little extra sparkle and attack? The selectable Brite switch adds a high-frequency edge that helps your bass pop. The onboard limiter keeps your signal clean and prevents clipping when you’re pushing the amp hard, ensuring your sound remains smooth and controlled.
Road-Ready Power and Connectivity
Designed for gigging musicians, the LH1000 packs immense power into a rugged, rack-mountable chassis. It’s built to withstand the demands of the road while offering all the connections you need for any live or studio setup.
Massive Power Output: With 1,000 watts of bridged mono power (or dual parallel mode running at 2 x 500 watts), the LH1000 has more than enough juice to drive any cabinet. This amp guarantees you’ll be heard and felt, no matter the size of the venue.
Versatile Outputs: Featuring both 1/4-inch and Speakon connectors, the LH1000 can seamlessly connect to virtually any bass cabinet on the market. While it’s the perfect match for Hartke's HyDrive cabinets, its versatility ensures it plays well with others.
Pro Connections: A front-panel XLR balanced direct output makes it easy to send your signal directly to a mixing board for live sound or recording. The rear-panel 1/4-inch effects loop allows you to integrate your favorite pedals and outboard gear without coloring your core tone.
Built Like a Tank
The LH1000 is engineered for reliability. Its two-rackspace metal chassis, steel faceplate, and sturdy handles mean it’s ready to handle the bumps and bruises of life on the road, gig after gig. With its potent combination of massive power, classic tube tone, and roadworthy construction, the Hartke LH1000 is a formidable tool for any serious bassist. It delivers the performance you need to lay down the low end with authority and style.
