• PLAYTECH Introduces the BPA-300 Pedal-Style Power Amp for Bass!

  

  2026/08/08

  PLAYTECH has released the BPA-300, a compact pedal-style power amplifier designed for live bass performance.
  
  Despite its compact footprint, the BPA-300 delivers up to 300W at 4 ohms and 200W at 8 ohms. It can be paired with a preamp or multi-effects unit to drive a speaker cabinet directly.
  
  The built-in EQ allows you to fine-tune your sound to suit the connected equipment and the acoustics of the venue. This makes it easy to build a practical live rig centered around your favorite preamp or effects unit, without carrying a conventional amplifier head.
  
  Combining portability with powerful output, the PLAYTECH BPA-300 is an excellent choice for bassists looking for a compact and flexible live setup.
