The Trickfish Bullhead Mini 500 Combo is a compact, professional-grade bass combo built for players who need serious tone, power, and flexibility in a highly portable format. Weighing only 23.5 lbs, it is designed as a true grab-and-go solution without stripping back the features working bassists rely on.

At the centre of the combo is the acclaimed Bullhead Mini 500 amplifier, powered by a low-noise, all-analogue solid-state preamp designed by Mike Pope. Its fixed 4-band EQ gives players fast access to a balanced, musical bass tone, with shelving Bass and Treble controls plus variable gain Low-Mid and Hi-Mid band-pass controls for more precise shaping.

The onboard 1x12 Lavoce neodymium speaker and HF driver deliver a clear, full-range response, while the three-position tweeter attenuator lets you tailor the top-end response to suit the room, instrument, or playing style. The combo provides 250W on its own, or up to 500W when paired with an optional external 8-ohm cabinet.

The Bullhead Mini 500 Combo is equally at home with electric or upright bass, offering a rich, balanced and powerful voice in a road-ready enclosure. With vintage-style grille cloth, tough sharkskin vinyl Tolex, Italian Poplar construction and a Baltic Birch baffle, it combines classic looks with modern performance and durability.
