Artist BA30 30W Bass Guitar Amplifier with Passive/Active Input
A great electric bass practice amplifier. Ideal for people learning to play the Bass Guitar. 30 Watts will give you plenty of volume for playing at home and is small enough to carry along to your lesson or jam session.
It features a 3-band EQ for easy tone control, and headphone output - great for playing at night or when you don't want to disturb your family or housemates! It also now features a Presence knob which will give you that added boost to cut into the mix and give your tone clarity.
It now features a Low and High Input for Passive or Active Basses. This also comes loaded with a 10 inch speaker to give you that punchy and boomy low end.

Questionable life expectancy - smoking just after
Sadly, this is the first negative review I've had to write for any Artist product. My amp is a little over 3 years old (6 months out of the warranty period) as my wife got it for me for Christmas. Went to use it this morning, and it started smoking. It's never left the house, and up until now has been a great little amp. I reached out to Artist just in case they could help, but sadly not this time. "In this situation, I recommend having it inspected by a technician who specializes in amplifiers and is located near you. This way, the technician can assess whether the amp is still repairable." I'm 55, so I guess I'm used to having robust amps that last decades, not just a few years. I suspect travel time plus inspection and repair costs wouldn't be worth it. This is the first Artist product I'd suggest avoiding. Sorry Artist. You make great guitars (I had 8 of them at one point) but this product falls short of your usual high standard.
Store OwnerThank you for sharing your feedback with us. We truly understand your concerns and appreciate your patience. Regrettably, as the amplifier is now outside of our 3-year warranty period, we are unable to facilitate repairs at this time. For safety considerations, we also cannot conduct assessments or troubleshoot amplifiers that may have electrical issues. We highly recommend seeking the expertise of a registered amplifier technician in your area for the most effective assistance and repairs. Should you have any further questions or require additional support, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at sales@artistguitars.com.au.11 June 2026 -

Amazing!
The sound is full and rich. I’ve had it for a couple of days and I’m still amazed with it. By far the best value amp I’ve seen. If it had an aux in port it would be 6 stars from me.

More Than I Expected
This amp is bigger and louder than I thought it might be and sounds great with the artist PB1. At around $400 for the whole package it's hard to be anything but very happy.
Store OwnerWe are glad to hear that you are happy with our product. Thank you for sharing this feedback with us and for the support!8 May 2024 -

Amazing Bass Amp
Ideal for home, a small gig or a jam session, though I reckon it would stand up via a PA System. Controls work! - very responsive. The speaker is excellent - great frequency responses. It just sounds great. Solid construction but not too heavy to carry!
Store OwnerThanks for your review! We are always here if you have any questions.21 October 2023 -
Bob ShortVerified Buyer
A good little amp big enough for a small room.
I have a huge 800 w head and cab and it rattles the house on minimum volume. I was looking for something small for the increasing number of small room gigs at lower volume. It does that job fine. It doesn't sound tinny. A DI line out is probably the only thing I wish it had but it doesn't. It was perfect for what I wanted but I'm not competing with loud players. When I have to, I can fall back on the big one.
Store OwnerWe are glad to hear that you are happy with the amplifier. Thank you so much for taking the time to writ a review for it.18 September 2023 -

Steve LedgerVerified Buyer
Succeeds as a home practice amp
Pros: The amp sounds good with enough EQ latitude for a variety of bass tones. Plenty of volume to annoy neighbours. Not too heavy but a good weight and solid feel. For $199 you can't beat it for value. Cons: Constant white noise (like a tape hiss), even with all controls at zero and without an instrument plugged in. Using a mic for home recording will be problematic. Did not like the blue faceplate at first, though it's growing on me
Store OwnerHi, thanks for your feedback. This is definitely covered under warranty so I've sent you an email to rectify this issue. Cheers!4 June 2023 -

Kieran CreaghVerified Buyer
Ideal starter combo
This is a compact, lightweight combo amp that's ideal for bedroom/study practice, or for backing a mate on an acoustic guitar. At only 30W the tones are surprisingly warm, and you'll be able to play 90% of what you need without having to spend a lot of time dialing up good tone. It doesn't have an OD toggle, so if you want more than a standard pickup tone, then you'll need to use an effects pedal. The Passive/Active inputs work without any issues and get the job done. My only quibble is with the persistent white noise that I get when using the headphone jack for quiet practice when using my Superlux HD688 (also from AG). For under $200, or in a combo with the excellent AG JB2 , you'll be more than satisfied.
Store OwnerWe really appreciate the perceptive review of the amp. Thank you for taking the time in leaving it. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you would need assistance.30 March 2021 -

I'm happy
It's 30 watts, so while you won't break any windows with the output, it's plenty for me. I only get to play in my man cave/garage. Plenty of tonal scope. Pairs well with my AG105RD. Another non-dud from Artist Guitars. Thanks guys.

We may use both session Cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent Cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on our Website. Persistent Cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions. Cookies may enable automatic logins when you visit in the future and may enable content customisation.
Some cookies are necessary to allow you to browse our Website, use its features, and access secure areas. The use of these cookies is essential for our Website to work.
We also use functional cookies to remember choices you’ve made or information you’ve provided, such as your username, language, or the region you are in.

For example, authentication cookies are functional cookies that are used for the duration of a session (or persistent, if you agree to the “remember me” function) to allow users to authenticate themselves on subsequent visits or to gain access to authorized content across pages.

• User-centric security cookies to detect authentication abuses for a limited persistent duration, like repeated failed login attempts. These cookies are set for the specific task of increasing the security of our Website.
• Multimedia content player session cookies (flash cookies) are used for the duration of a session to store technical data needed to play back video or audio content (e.g. image quality, network link speed, and buffering parameters).
• Load balancing session cookies are used for the duration of the session to identify the same server in the pool in order for the load balancer to redirect user requests appropriately.
• User interface customisation persistent cookies are used to store a user’s preference regarding a service across web pages.
