Frank makes the amp better....what a groove machine he is

[BARTOZZI-OFFICIAL]

Frank is my favourite bassface performer since zi was a kid 😂 incredible tone as always

I just received my Forte D and a 2x12 NXT. Best amp I’ve ever owned after 25 years of playing. The clarity is superb.

If you do even a modest amount of research on Bergantino gear, you inevitably find people referring to the "revealing" or "honest" nature of it. And Gregor is 100% correct when he says that amps of this quality can reveal your technical shortcomings (5:02). A/B the rig in this demo with almost any widely distributed gear and you'd probably agree! For some, this might be really intimidating or off-putting. And it is probably true that players with more refined technique would get on easier with it, at least at first. 

It's like using a high-resolution camera, capturing more 'information' from your bass. But you could always compensate with the amp's outstanding EQ control, if needed. For me, in 25+ years of playing bass, it's the best sounding gear I've ever used

I’ve been using a Bergantino rig for the last three years. Pricey? Yep. Worth it? Beyond measure. You want one.

[firestarten]

It's even easier to convince someone else to carry your gear when it's light! When I show up to a gig, I need both hands for beer

berg has been my dream amp for years ever since i saw the 410 in bass player mag

Hahahaha Jim’s response 😂😂

Best cabs and heads in the business in my opinion! Proud Bergantino owner here ! 😃

[Sonic_Axe]

Bergantino amps are awesome. I have the B amp with an nxt 112 cabinet. I can’t say enough great things about it. No regrets whatsoever.

[ironxmike]

I test drove a Fodera through a Bergantino a few years ago in San Diego. No joke, this rig will shine a humbling light on your playing. LOL

[johncbeer]

Love that you played several basses through it. Would love to hear a comparison between their NXV, NXT and HG cabs.

[derPaul]

the bass player is a show of its own! like your videos!

[jreid]

I have one of these, use it all the time. It sounds and works great. I think its way better sounding than many others I’ve owned and used over the years.

Frank Itt! Was für eine schöne Überraschung :-) Ich wünsche mir ein Video, in dem Frank den Gibson drei Stunden lang ohne Unterbrechung spielt

[JoshuaLTRyan]

I like it. this is exactly the kind of amp I want. So many times you can't just use a di to foh, , and if you can, you might still need stage volume, etc. I can add my own color as needed per situation. Very good.

[cestusfr]

That old gibson bass sound was sweet ^__^

[PhilosophicalCat]

Getting a Bergantino amp+cab killed my GAS for amps. I'm always eyeing new basses but amplifiers are no longer on my "me wants it radar"

[williamdeming]

Dude has so much soul! Really enjoying hearing the bass demos.🤘🍻

[ABC-uh]

just got the NXT210 to go with my new Ashdown 12-Band 600... wow! I like it almost more than my Aguilar DB751 with my two Aguilar SL210's.. so worth the price!

[brianwilliams]

Frank has a great "stank" face, nice chops. Unfortunately not many places to hear this gear live near me.
