INTRODUCTION

The Fender BXR 300 AMPLIFIER is the most recent effort in state of the art bass amplifier technology, and is a member of the FENDER BXR series. The design execution of the BXR 300 was carried out with the aid of some of today’s best players, and represents years of thought and consideration in the determination of features and specifications. The features included in the BXR 300 will provide a forum for almost every conceivable playing style from “contemporary” to those yet to come.

This manuel covers all the features and functions for both BXR 300 models; the BXR 300R (rack mount) and the BXR 300C (1-15 combo).

Much attention has been given to those who would like to take advantage of the new signal processing devices which have appeared in recent time. Processors from simple battery powered devices to professional rack mounted studio types may be used. This facility is accomplished through the use of “PREAMP OUT” and “POWER AMP IN”. The preamp section of the BXR 300 features two inputs, of differing sensitivity. A pair of buttons called “ENHANCE” are provided to allow enhancement of the low or high end of the spectrum. Active “BASS” and “TREBLE” controls allow response tailoring of the high and low frequency areas of the sounds you and your instrument produce.

The “MID” and “MID FREQUENCY” controls allow up to 20 decibels of boost or cut of the mid frequencies from 150 Hz to 4kHz. The rugged 300 Watt power amplifier was designed to give reliable service under all conditions and is equipped with our exclusive DELTACOMP™ adaptive compression system. When DELTACOMP™ engages, it is practically impossible to cause the power amplifiers to clip (distort). With DELTACOMP™, apparent compressor release time is kept short yet waveform distortion is kept to a minimum at low frequencies.

The BXR 300R is designed to perform well with almost any high quality speaker system, but performs best when used with members of the FENDER BXR and HM series. Speakers in these series include the BXR-115 , with a single fifteen inch FENDER special design driver, BXR-215 with two fifteen inch FENDER special design drives, BXR-410 with four ten inch FENDER special design drivers or the BXR SPECTRUM, employing one eighteen inch and two ten inch FENDER special design drivers and a BI-AMP ready crossover network.

WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

BXR 300C, BXR 300R specifications

The Fender BXR 300R and BXR 300C are powerful bass amplifiers designed for musicians seeking versatility and high-quality tone in their performances. With robust construction and innovative technology, these models offer a range of features that cater to both live performances and studio recordings.

At the core of the BXR series is the impressive output power. The BXR 300R and BXR 300C deliver 300 watts of power, ensuring that your bass can be heard clearly in any setting. This power output allows for a dynamic range that can handle the low frequencies of electric bass without distortion, making these amplifiers ideal for various styles of music, from rock to jazz.

One of the standout features of the BXR series is the built-in bi-amped configuration. This technology separates the high and low frequencies, sending them to dedicated drivers. The BXR 300R features a robust 15-inch speaker for low-end response, paired with a horn tweeter for crisp highs. This design ensures that the amplifier can reproduce the full spectrum of bass frequencies with clarity and precision.

Both models include extensive EQ controls, allowing players to shape their sound. With a 3-band EQ featuring bass, mid, and treble controls, musicians can easily sculpt their tone to fit any genre. Additionally, the presence control enhances the amplifier's brightness, providing an extra edge to the sound when needed.

The BXR series also incorporates a unique D.I. output, making it easy for players to connect to mixing consoles or recording equipment. This feature is particularly useful for live performances and studio sessions, offering a clean signal that preserves the integrity of the original tone.

Portability is another crucial aspect of the Fender BXR 300R and BXR 300C. Designed for musicians on the go, both models come equipped with sturdy handles and a lightweight design, making them easy to transport.

In summary, the Fender BXR 300R and BXR 300C bass amplifiers stand out in the competitive market by offering a blend of power, innovative technology, and user-friendly features. Whether on stage or in the studio, these amplifiers provide the reliability and tonal versatility that every bassist seeks, delivering performances that resonate with both musicians and audiences alike.
