TRAYNOR
YBA300 BASS AMPLIFIER
AND TC810 BASS CAB
BY JORDAN WAGNER
Since producing the first portable PA speaker columns back in 1963, Traynor has made major strides in the world of amplification. Traynor amps are prized by their fans for their heady, punchy cleans and ample volume. It has also been a com- pany keen on helping bassists in their quest for tone, having designed and manufactured one of the world’s first 8x10 bass cabinets decades ago. The new YBA300 bass ampli- fier—which packs 300 watts of all-tube power—continues to drive Traynor’s reputa- tion for big tone and high headroom, with plenty of tone to spare.
