TRAYNOR DB400T Details top
Unmatched versatility is ensured by the Traynor DynaBass DB400's combination of tube and solid-state topographies in the input signal path. The FET driven solid-state input circuit delivers a pristine clean tone, perfect for funk & pop styles. A simple touch of a button switches the DB400 input to a warm and responsive tube circuit, ideal for R&B, rock, blues and country.
Built in North America and designed for maximum dependability, the DB400 1x15 combo and its 2x10 loaded cousin, the DB400T use a solid plywood cabinet construction, all metal chassis and a heavy gauge perforated metal grille to protect the high quality speaker components.
A five-band EQ with semi-parametric mid and Scoop Control ensures you can always find any tone quickly and easily. The Scoop Control sweeps from a flat frequency response through a mid-frequency dip at 400Hz, boosting both the top and bottom end while as the control moves beyond the halfway point. This simple and effective tone-shaping tool makes it easy to hit that perfect sweet spot in your sound on any stage, any night.
A footswitchable distortion / fuzz with tunable drive can be added in parallel to a core clean bass tone using the wet/dry blend on the front panel. This continuously variable control allows the perfect mix of the fuzz effect to be added to the core clean tone creating a whole new tone pallet.
A front panel tuner / mute switch kills the signal to the amplifier (and DI output) for silent tuning with the front panel mounted 1/4-inch tuner out jack. A footswitchable effects return with level control and a pre/post selectable XLR balanced DI output with ground lift ensures maximum flexibility with either combo.

Bass Combos Series Overview
The first product Pete Traynor ever designed and built was an extremely reliable and affordable bass amplifier. For over forty years, musicians have chosen Traynor bass amplifiers for their great sound and unmatched durability.
Years of experience building instrument and loudspeaker cabinets has taught us that using MDF (medium density fiberboard) or particleboard for bass cabinets isn’t conducive to a long rattle-free life or a great bass tone. Therefore all Traynor bass cabinets are made with a reinforced solid plywood cabinet construction to ensure unmatched reliability. A full metal grille protects the high quality custom designed speaker components used in all Traynor Bass combos.
