About Us

We are FORGE Active Bass Amplification. Our focus is building the finest bass amps in the world.  We do this by thinking outside the box— way outside the box— to come up with revolutionary and even radical ways to make bass amps sound and perform better— way better….and we have a patent pending to prove it.  Our bass amps deliver superb bass note definition, clarity and power across an extremely broad and flat frequency curve with no frequency dropouts.  And we do whatever it takes to accomplish that goal.  

Our product design and engineering teams are the best, most forward-thinking and innovative people in the industry. They are nit-picky about every feature, control, and circuit design detail. And because they are players or sound engineers, too, they understand what bass players want in tone, power, control and note definition, and are relentless about quality and reliability.

We spent 1 1/2 years testing our prototypes with all kinds of bass players, from hard rock and metal to jazz and country players. We've had our prototypes back stage at OzzFest and with other top international touring bands, as well as live on stage with local club bands and with top recording studios to ensure bass players liked what we are doing. And we did this over and over and over again. We told bass players to abuse our prototypes, to try to make them blow up, burn out, or misbehave. We asked them to see if they could get the tone they wanted, the top, mid and bottom-end they wanted, the note clarity they wanted, and the power they wanted. The AXB Active Bass Amplification Series is the result of that extreme effort.

Our product design and engineering people each have extensive professional gigging, touring and recording experience, plus they are well-educated, with EEs and MBAs, and all with extensive backgrounds with other major MI and Pro Audio companies. Our engineers have long and stellar careers developing MI and Pro Audio products that have been highly successful— literally hundreds of times.

And we don't farm out our manufacturing or engineering to some foreign country on the other side of the planet that doesn't have the slightest clue or care about tone, note definition, quality or reliability. Our offices and factory are located in the U.S.A. so we can keep a close eye on quality control and testing, as well as perform our own product design and development to ensure we deliver what bass players want and can trust.

That's who we are. So if you don't already own a FORGE Active Bass Amp, we hope you will try one out soon. We're sure you'll be as proud owning one as we are building them.
