The 60+ guitars, amps, pedals, basses, and accessories that stood out from the crowd and earned our coveted Premier Gear Award this year.
Taurus Vandall-500
This 500-watt, class-D bass amp includes two preamps—one tube, one solid-state—that can be engaged simultaneously and blended with a single knob. Its parametric midrange and 3-way treble and bass boost/cut switches offer powerful, musical EQ, and the amp exudes a genuine feeling of quality as you dial in tones. It’s apparent that someone who actually plays many gigs themselves was responsible for designing the features in the Vandall-500.Read the review
