The legendary sound of Aguilar.
Just a few years ago, to get a warm, organic and powerful bass sound, you had to lug around 40-pound amp heads. Those days are over.
But don't let its size fool you. This is no toy. Inside this small metal chassis is the Tone Hammer preamp, the same one found in the brand's most expensive pedals and amps.
Why is the TH350 a must-have?
Le Circuit "Drive" AGS : Ce n'est pas juste un bouton de gain. Le contrôle Drive intègre le circuit AGS (Adaptive Gain Shaping) d'Aguilar. À bas volume, ça réchauffe le son. Poussez-le, et vous obtenez ce "growl" vintage et granuleux qui perce le mix sans jamais devenir brouillon.
Médiums Paramétriques : La clé d'un bon son de basse, c'est les médiums. La TH350 vous permet de balayer les fréquences (Mid Freq) et de choisir exactement où booster ou couper. C'est l'outil chirurgical pour s'adapter à l'acoustique parfois douteuse des salles de spectacle.
350 Watts Réels : Ne sous-estimez pas la puissance de la classe D d'Aguilar. Ces 350 watts (sous 4 ohms) sont largement suffisants pour la majorité des clubs, bars et scènes corporatives du Québec.
Sortie D.I. de Studio : La sortie XLR à l'arrière est ultra-silencieuse et transparente. Les ingénieurs du son l'adorent. Souvent, vous n'aurez même pas besoin de micro devant votre cabinet.

FAQ – The most frequently asked questions on the web
We have compiled the most frequently asked questions about the Tone Hammer 350 to help you decide.
1. 350 Watts, is that enough to play with a noisy drummer?
In 90% of cases, yes. If you pair this head with an efficient cabinet (like a 2x10 or a 1x12 at 4 ohms), you'll have more than enough volume for rehearsals and gigs in bars. For huge stages without a PA system, you might be pushing the limits, but that's a rare scenario these days.
2. Can the head be used without connecting a cabinet (speaker)?
Yes! That's the beauty of Class D. You can use it with just the DI (XLR) output for silent recording or for playing in "In-Ear Monitors" on stage, without risking damage to the amp.
3. Is there a headphone jack or an Aux input?
No. Aguilar designed the TH350 as a pure and simple stage amp, not a bedroom practice amp. The internal space is optimized for the quality of the audio components, not for gadgets.
4. What is the difference between the TH350 and the TH500?
The main difference is the headroom. The TH500 offers more volume and remains clean at higher volumes. The TH350 will saturate a bit more quickly if you push it to the max, which can be an advantage if you like a slightly dirty, rock sound. They have exactly the same preamp.
5. Is the fan noisy?
The fan is thermally activated. At low volume (at home), it is almost inaudible. In a concert setting, you will never hear it.
6. Which cabinet (Cab) should I use with it?
To get the most out of the 350W, we recommend a 4-ohm cabinet (such as the Aguilar SL 112 or SL 210 series). If you use an 8-ohm cabinet, the head will deliver approximately 175W.
