In the mid 1960's, a young, small-town entrepreneur named Bud Ross battled the odds to combine America's love of music with its passion for high speed hot rods. Imagining the future wrapped in sparkling car upholstery, Ross experimented with covering speaker cabinets with the same colorful Naugahyde material. Musicians responded with an enthusiastic "outta sight!" and an icon of the modern music industry was born. As with all great ideas, the timing for Kustom was perfect. What began in Ross' garage quickly expanded into a full- blown facility in Chanutte, Kansas, with products flying out the doors to feed the dreams of musicians all across the USA.
Kustom responded to the burgeoning demand by developing a full-range of amplification products, from guitar and bass amps to P.A systems, organs, guitars and even the first Talk Box (The Bag), as used by Stevie Wonder and Jeff Beck.Today, Kustom honors its trend-setting past by building award-winning amplifiers and P.A systems with features and tones that inspire a whole new generation of players. Products like the all-tube Coupe Series guitar amplifiers and Groove Bass models are earning accolades in print and from an ever growing list of endorsers.
The new Groove Bass 600HD captures the essence of the classic Groove Bass sound and presents it at a price that most any bass player can afford. Rated at 600 RMS watts, the Groove 600HD packs a mighty punch and provides all Groove Bass 1300HD features with the exception of the EQ Shift switches.
Other popular Groove features such as the 9-Band Active EQ, Effects Loop, Neutrik Speak-On output connectors, Pre- or Post-EQ XLR Line Out, Tuner Out and Solo Boost functions remain untouched. The footswitchable Mute function, which allows players to silence their amplifier rig while tuning up, now activates a blinking LED to make the Mute mode more noticeable on dark concert stages.
Take the time to investigate a new Kustom amp or P.A system for yourself. Listen to their unique, soulful tones. Experiment with their one-of-kind features. We think you'll come away wondering why you hadn't check out Kustom a lot sooner!
