March 2009
After seeing the various awards shows,
I noticed that Adam Clayton had some new amps. I was curious so I contacted Aguilar to find out what items of there's Adam
was using and sent them off some pictures from the shows. Aguilar's response below:
Hi Jeffrey,
The rig Adam is using in those shots is a DB
750 amplifier with a DB 410 cabinet and a DB 115 cabinet (both cabinets in Classic Black). We appreciate you adding
the links. They are as follows:
The heads are kept with
his tech off stage for easy adjustment.
Please let me know if there is anything else that we can help
you with.
Best Regards,
David Avenius
Chief Executive Officer

**** Editors note: Adam has
changed FROM the db750 TO the db751 model since the time of this original email.

have Adam now playing through our Tone Hammer ® 500 is further validation that even though it only weighs four pounds,”
adds Dale Titus, “the Tone Hammer ® 500 provides a massive sonic experience.”
