Description

The AG 500 is a bass amp head that delivers the Hi-Fi clarity, dynamic response, and fast attack typical of the legendary AG series, now in an even more versatile format. This head provides 500 Watts of power at 4 ohms and weighs only 2.2 kg, making it extremely portable without compromising on sound quality. Thanks to the equalizer with Treble, High Mid, Low Mid, and Bass controls, and the Deep and Bright switches, you can achieve an extremely flexible sound.

New features in the second generation of the AG 500 include an IR Loader module with three cabinet simulations that can be activated via a switch on the rear panel and modified via a USB connection. This allows you to customize your sound using the Aguilar Suite, which offers all Aguilar cabinet simulations and the ability to add your own Impulse Responses for total flexibility. In addition, a second XLR DI output has been added to send pre and post-EQ signals, improving control over in-ear monitoring and reamping operations in the studio. An Aux In and a headphone output with dedicated volume control have also been introduced, ideal for daily practice and silent study. Another new feature is the automatic switching transformer, which automatically adapts to the input voltage, eliminating the need to manually change switches.
