Thank you for purchasing the Fender® MB-1200 Mono Block
Power Amplifier. We designed this professional power amplifier
to complement our TBP-1 Tube Bass Preamp (or any other
reputable manufacturer's preamp). The MB-1200 is a "mono-
block" power amp. This means there is one single power
source delivering ALL 1200 WATTS of power (no bridging
needed). You can use one MB-1200 to power a 2 Ohm load and
deliver 1200 watts of crushing bass power. Should you need
more power, you can slave multiple MB-1200's together to give
you enough bottom end to shake any stage!
• 1200 Watts into 2 Ohms (800 Watts into 4 Ohms)
A . VOLUME – Adjusts overall amplifier loudness in
conjunction with any level controls found on a connected
preamp.
B . DUAL-PURPOSE LIGHT BAR – The entire length of the bar
glows blue when receiving power. The numbered LEDs
behind the light bar indicate signal strength presented
to the power amp section, calibrated in dB (decibels)
before clipping. The bargraph is accurate for all speaker
loads. The CLIP LED will flash red when the amplifier
clips. The PROTECT LED will glow yellow if the thermal
protection circuit becomes active to protect the amplifier
The MB-1200 can be mounted in a rack or
flight case that measures anywhere from
13" (33.0 cm) to 17.5" (44.5 cm) between
front and rear rails.
1) Remove the adhesive rubber feet from
the bottom of the MB-1200.
2) Remove the 2 bolts {K} on each side of
the MB-1200, then use them to loosely
attach the "rack ear" brackets-{J} that were supplied
with your MB-1200.

from over-heating. Should this happen, check to see that
all front vents and the rear fan openings are clear from
any obstructions. Maintain proper ventilation clearances.
(The bargraph will still operate in thermal shutdown
mode indicating that any signal source connected to the
amplifier is still operating properly.)
C . POWER – Switches the unit on/off as indicated by the
light bar glowing blue.
3) Lift the MB-1200 into position and provide
temporary support until all corners are
attached.
4) B olt the MB-1200 front panel tabs to the front
rack rails.
5) Slide the adjustable brackets {J} to fit the rack,
then attach with bolts through the rear rails
{I} as shown.
6) Tighten all bolts securely.
