With dual-channel architecture, advanced EQ options like the powerful Tilt control, and a host of connectivity features including DI outs, FX loops, and headphone jacks, the DBF amps are designed to give bassists total command over their sound – whether they’re dialing in warm cleans, gritty drive, or something in between.

Laney DBF200H Bass Head

The Laney DBF200H Bass Head is a feature-packed powerhouse built for the modern bassist seeking tone shaping flexibility and gig-ready performance. Pushing 200 watts RMS, it delivers a rich, commanding low end while offering a hybrid preamp design with both FET and TUBE circuits that can be footswitchable and mixed to taste. The selectable mid pre-shape curves, combined with the unique Tilt EQ – a “see-saw” style control – give players the ability to cut through any mix or round out their tone with deep lows and smooth highs.

A rear panel FX loop provides the flexibility to insert time-based effects after the preamp, a crucial option for serious tone tweakers. The balanced XLR DI out includes Pre/Post EQ selection and a ground lift for clean signal routing to PA systems or recording setups. With extras like a 3.5mm aux input, headphones out, combi speaker out (Speakon and 1/4″), and a rugged yet portable design, the DBF200H is a professional tool built for the stage and studio alike.

Laney DBF200 Bass Combo

Packing 200 watts into a roadworthy enclosure, the Laney DBF200 Bass Combo brings power, versatility, and tonal sophistication to the forefront. Built around the same dual-channel architecture as the DBF200H, this combo combines a clean FET preamp with a tube-style Drive channel, plus a Mix function that lets you blend both for the ultimate in clarity and grit. The Preshape switch scoops the mids while boosting lows and highs — ideal for slap and aggressive fingerstyle.

Equipped with a 15″ HH Blue professional woofer and housed in a sturdy plywood cabinet, the DBF200 delivers punch and presence across the full frequency range. A 3-band EQ with switchable mid voicing, the Tilt control, and a Master Volume round out the sculpting tools. With onboard features like a headphone out, aux input, DI out (pre-EQ), FX loop with line out capability, and a footswitch socket for channel control, this combo covers everything from practice to pro gigging. And with a removable front baffle and universal power supply, it’s studio-ready too.

Laney DBF100 Bass Combo

The Laney DBF100 Bass Combo strikes a perfect balance for players who want professional features without the full heft of a 200-watt rig. Delivering 100 watts through a 12″ HH Blue woofer, it offers the same dual-channel setup as its bigger sibling: FET Clean and Drive, with an optional Mix mode to blend them seamlessly. A three-band EQ with selectable mid voicing and a switchable Preshape lets you carve your tone with precision, while the Tilt EQ makes on-the-fly adjustments easy and effective.

This combo offers both AUX input and headphones out for practicing with backing tracks or in silence. The FX loop adds flexibility for adding modulation or time-based effects, and the DI out makes it stage- and studio-ready. With a top-mounted steel handle, reinforced corners, and removable front baffle, the DBF100 is built to move, endure, and deliver powerful tone wherever you plug in.

Laney DBF50 Bass Combo

With 50 watts of focused output and a 10″ HH Blue woofer, the Laney DBF50 Bass Combo offers players a versatile, portable option that doesn’t compromise on tonal range. Built around the Digbeth Foundry platform, this compact combo features two footswitchable channels — a Clean FET and a Drive channel with its own volume — plus a MIX mode that lets you dial in the perfect combination of smooth low-end clarity and tube-style grit.

You’ll find a responsive three-band EQ onboard, complete with the Preshape switch to accentuate lows and highs, and the Tilt control for subtle or bold tonal shifts. This makes the DBF50 an ideal choice for modern players who need flexibility in small spaces. With AUX input, stereo headphone jack, balanced DI out (pre-EQ), FX loop with line-out capability, and a removable front baffle, the DBF50 is equally at home in rehearsals, studios, and small venues.

Laney DBF30 Bass Combo

The DBF30 is the most compact offering in Laney’s Digbeth Foundry line, but don’t mistake its size for lack of substance. With a 30-watt output section and an 8″ HH Blue professional woofer, this little combo brings surprising punch and clarity — perfect for beginners, home practice, or small intimate performances.

It features both Clean and Drive channels, with a footswitchable tube-style drive circuit to add warmth and grit. The Preshape button offers a quick EQ scoop for instant slap tone appeal, while the 3-band EQ and Tilt function help you find the sweet spot in your tone. Rounding out its feature set are a headphone out, aux input for jamming with tracks, and a removable front fret for studio miking. Lightweight, rugged, and tuned for tone, the DBF30 is proof that good things do come in small packages.
