Laney Introduces The Nathan East Digbeth Bass Head
Laney are excited to announce the New Standard in their DIGBETH Bass range.
This 1,000-watt powerhouse is designed in collaboration with legendary bassist Nathan East. Handcrafted in our Black Country Customs workshop in the UK, this amp combines our 60 years’ experience in amp design and production, with cutting-edge innovation to deliver unparalleled tone and flexibility for today’s professional bassist.
“Every night, I just feel good to know that after all these years, there’s an amp that reproduces the sound that I love so much -simple as that,” says Nathan East, whose illustrious career spans work with Eric Clapton, Phil Collins, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Fourplay and so many more. “it’s a game-changer for me”
The DB-EAST offers unprecedented flexibility with two separate inputs and outputs. “I’ve waited 40 years for this!” Nathan East. “Every amp only has one input—-why? I’ll never know. But this has two and two separate outputs so that the front-of-house engineer or anyone mixing the room can have each instrument separately”
Switchable & Blendable FET & TUBE Preamp Stages
Building on Laney’s DIGBETH legacy, the DB-EAST features a unique preamp section that allows players to mix tube warmth with FET clarity. “This thing is so musical. When I’m on stage playing, it doesn’t feel like an electronic piece of gear or a set of tubes” – Nathan East
Precision Tone Control
The amp boasts a 3-band EQ with a parametric mid-section and Laney’s innovative Tilt function. East explains, “Let’s start with the funk setting —where I like to scoop the mids. This is sort of the setting I use when it comes to a little bit of funk”
LA•IR DI Output System
Equipped with Laney’s LA•IR technology, the DB-EAST comes pre-loaded with Nathan’s favorite cabinet impulse responses. “The DB-EAST is LA•IR-equipped and comes loaded with two of my favourite IRs—the 2×1 2s and the 4x 10s,” East shares.
1,000 Watts of Power
“We now have twice the power, twice the inputs, twice the magic!” – Nathan East. With 1,000 watts of power and dual 500-watt Speakon outputs, the DB-EAST is built for any stage, from intimate jazz clubs to massive stadiums.
Experience the amp that Nathan East calls “a game changer” and elevate your bass playing to new heights!
