The FLAMMA FB200 is a bass multi-effects processor from FLAMMA, built around 20 bass-specific amp and cabinet simulation modules and the ability to load third-party impulse responses across 9 additional loading slots. It runs on an internal 2000mAh lithium battery, which FLAMMA says offers up to 6 hours of continuous power-free use and takes approximately 2.5 hours to charge1. It sits in the multi-effects pedals category, aimed at bass players who want amp, cabinet and effects in one unit.
The dials, footswitches and display
The FB200 is controlled from the top panel rather than through menus. FLAMMA describes 16 dials lining the device horizontally, enabling users to manually toggle effects on and off, change their type, and adjust their parameters1. Underfoot there are four multi-purpose footswitches, used to select between presets within each bank, while pressing two footswitches simultaneously changes the preset bank1. Feedback comes from a minimalistic 3-character digital display providing real-time feedback on effect values1.
For connections, the pedal carries a ¼" bass guitar input and a ¼" bass amp output1.
Size and power
Bass Musician Magazine's reviewer, Cláudio Ribeiro, measured the unit at 311 × 67.5 × 49.7 mm and weighing just over half a kilogram (578 g)2. The internal battery is the headline power feature: because it charges in roughly 2.5 hours and runs up to 6 hours, the FB200 can be used without a power supply connected, which FLAMMA positions as useful for practice and portable setups1.
What reviewers said
In a September 2025 review for Bass Musician Magazine, Cláudio Ribeiro offered a measured take on the amp models2:
"The amp models lean toward practicality rather than hyper-detailed authenticity."
He went on to say they "provide a convincing tonal foundation that sits well in a mix"2.
Firmware updates
FLAMMA's manual page gives a simple update procedure: connect the device to your computer, and the update prompt will appear automatically3. The maker adds a precaution before you start:
"To prevent any potential data loss, please make sure to back up your presets before updating."
