PRODUCT DESCRIPTION – The SHUTTLE
®
6.2 represents the 2nd generation 
of our widely acclaimed SHUTTLE
® 
series of light weight, high output bass 
amplifiers.  This model has been designed with our unique ULTRA LIGHT 
unified design process, yielding a 600 watt professional high powered tour-class 
bass guitar amplifier, weighing only 3.75 lbs!  This 2nd generation SHUTTLE
®
 
amplifier now incorporates our unique 3-Dimensional Power Management 
circuitry along with other enhancements like increased tube gain and high 
efficiency thermal management.
Our proprietary 3DPM™ technology insures greater and more solid sounding 
output while retaining the feel and playability of a more traditional tube based 
power amplifier.  When driving the power amp hard the player can feel 
increased heft and girth of the individual notes, while maintaining dynamics and 
articulation.  The result is an amplifier that achieves a more 3 dimensional tone 
and feel, like a tube amplifier power section, without the anemic flatness other 
amplifier designs can exhibit.  This compact design blends the best of analog 
and digital platforms to produce the ultimate in warmth, punch and power. 
The SHUTTLE
®
6.2 is equipped with a ¼” unbalanced instrument input, preamp 
stage clip detector, mute switch with LED indicator, 12AX7 tube preamp with 
extended range variable input gain, 3 switched signal shape filters with LED 
indicators, 3 band active equalization with sweepable midrange frequency, 
master volume control, proprietary 3DPM™ power management, ¼” tuner 
output, aux. input, effects loop, balanced direct out with ground lift/pre-post/mic-
line switches, headphone output, and 2 Neutrik NL-4 “Speak-On”™ speaker 
jacks.
The power amp is a powerful, light weight Class D design and is supported by a 
state-of-the-art high frequency Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS), which does 
away with the weight of a traditional power transformer.  The SHUTTLE
®
6.2’s 
power supply is usable from 100-240 volts, lending itself well to international 
touring players.
