Laney DBF50 Digbeth Foundry 50 watt 1 x 10 inch Bass Combo Amplifier

Crafted by Musicians, Built for Bassists

At Laney, music and musicians come first. That’s why Digbeth Foundry amps aren’t designed by committees — they’re crafted by experts who play, design, and live music. The Digbeth Foundry DBF50 exemplifies this philosophy. This 50-watt bass combo is a true powerhouse, delivering a wide range of bold, articulate tones through a 10-inch HH Audio Blue speaker. At its core, the DBF50’s FET-based clean tone offers exceptional clarity and definition. When you want to push things further, the footswitchable tube-style Drive adds rich warmth and gritty edge, perfect for cutting through a mix or adding vintage-style character. A flexible EQ section includes a Tilt control for quick, intuitive tone shaping. Meanwhile, a dedicated Master Volume makes it easy to dial in your output level for any venue or rehearsal space. Practical features such as a balanced DI output and a high-quality effects loop round out the package, making the DBF50 as functional as it is expressive. Blending heritage, innovation, and exceptional value, the Laney Digbeth Foundry DBF50 delivers pro-level performance and tone.

No matter what tone you envision for your bass lines, the Laney Digbeth Foundry DBF50 can achieve it. The amplifier’s FET-based foundation is incredibly crisp and clean, yet never sterile. The Drive switch gives you access to the amp’s second personality: a snarling, thunderous beast infused with a potent tube-style grind. The 3-band EQ offers comprehensive sound shaping, while the Tilt control — one of our favorite features here at Sweetwater — enables you to add more mix-piercing cut or dial in a velvety, silken roundness. Additionally, individual FET Volume and Master Volume knobs allow you to craft the perfect bass tone at any volume.
