The Walkabout is good News for the Bassist on the Move. This little brother to the M-Pulse 600 delivers all the same great tone at a size and weight that fits the demands of any bass player who’s traveling light and still needs huge sound. Using Simul-State, Mesa's hybrid tube-driven MOSFET circuitry, this 300 watt power section has all the nuance, definition and punch of the larger M-Pulse formats. And with almost the same headroom as its larger brother, the Walkabout has plenty of power to fill small clubs or coffee-house type venues. It’s also fitted with a toneful Balanced Out that’s great for grab-n-go studio sessions or for feeding the house board with your live stage sound.
Using the same soulful tube pre-amp as the 600, the Walkabout’s tried-and-true rotary tone controls feature active Treble and Bass plus a sweet, passive Mid. The scaled-down three-band version of the Parametric Equalizer handles all the crucial frequencies with simple authority - it’s everything you need and nothing more.
Weighing in at a mere 13 pounds, with optionally available rack ears, this 300 watt cigar-box delivers tone that’s taking the small-size world by storm. That’s because the new Walkabout is the perfect combination of a supremely tuned all-tube pre-amp and a dynamic, hybrid power section at a price that won’t weigh you down. So if you need a great bass sound with punch, detail and clarity to rival any rig, but have to fit all that tone in a sub-compact car—or even a backpack. Go Walkabout… the loyal, light-weight companion for your musical journey.
