The Hartke Model LH5210 and LH5410 bass amplifiers offer classic tone with Hartke's newest breakthrough in bass 

speaker design; Hydrive hybrid cone transducers.

•   Power to spare — The model LH5210 delivers 350 watts to its internal 8 ohm speaker system or 500 watts when 

an 8 ohm extension cabinet is connect along with the internal speaker.  The Model LH5410 produces a full 500 

watts delivered to its internal 4 ohm speaker system. 

•  Classic 12AX7 tube high-voltage preamp circuit provides great tone.

•   BASS, MID  and TREBLE "Tone Stack" equalizer controls, allow you to create a broad range of tonal colors for your 

bass instrument.  

•   A built-in Limiter which not only adds real “loudness” to your bass sound, but also allows you to smooth out 

volume differences between notes.

•  Two independent inputs to accommodate both passive and active bass guitars.

•  The model 5210 has a rear panel 1/4-inch connector for connecting an external extension cabinet.

•   Protection relay circuitry that protects connected speakers from dangerous overloading and also prevents 

“thumps” when powering on or off.

•  Effect loop send and return jacks that allow you to connect to professional outboard effects processors.

•   Electronically balanced direct output that provides a means of routing signal to professional mixing consoles in 

both live performance and recording environments. 

•   The LH amplifiers’ cabinets are constructed using high quality plywood with extensive bracing and dado joinery, 

making them extremely rigid and at the same time lightweight.

•   The vinyl covering, metal grill, corners and handles, plus removable casters provide added protection and ease 

while moving the amplifier from gig to gig.

•  Rugged construction makes the Model LH5210 and LH5410 eminently road-worthy.

•   Easy to use, great tone and loud!

•  Three year extended warranty.
