This amp head weighs in at a mere four lbs., yet it boasts 200 watts of real-world power — enough to push a 4 x 12" cabinet. And thanks to Quilter’s proprietary Direct Out, you can even plug it straight into a console. There’s plenty of tone shaping onboard — Gain, Tri-Q and Hi-Cut, a limiter, and reverb — so dialing in your tone is a piece of cake. You also get an FX loop for integrating your pedalboard and outboard effects. The Pro Block 200 belongs at the heart of your grab-and-go guitar setup.
The Pro Block 200 contains loads of tone-shaping power. The left half of the Gain control is suitable for line-level signals like keyboards or external preamps, while the right half of its range gives you enough breakup to add character to your guitar. The Tri-Q and Hi-Cut knobs give you access to sounds that are flat, mid-scooped, bright, mellow, and more. You also get a limiter to reduce distortion and maintain low-level sustain, as well as reverb to add space and dimension to your playing.
At four lbs., it’s so light a toddler could carry it — one-handed! Plug it into Quilter’s 2x8W cabinet (sold separately), and you’ve got an all-in-one amp rig that weighs less than a wiener dog. There’s nothing lightweight about the Pro Block 200’s performance, however. The Master control enables you to dial the amp from 0 to 200 watts — that’s everything from a bedroom player’s 1 x 8" to a gig-ready 4 x 12" cabinet. The guitarists here at Sweetwater are impressed by the performance-to-size ratio offered by the Pro Block 200. Plug in, and you’ll understand why!
