zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "220w of Ampeg tone with a tube preamp, best in class"
Sound: sound is great, dialing in your sound is super easy no silly eq sliders or garbage like that. plenty loud, probably going to make your guitarist angry. Feature: very cool, no complaints. just the right amount of features, not a bunch of frills and gimmicks. Ease of Use: plug and play Quality: this is the only gripe i have about this amp. made in china. sure i haven't had any quality issues, but for $650 i want american. i have looked this amp over thoroughly, and it looks solid. Value: tube preamp and 220W of ampeg tone. not bad. value should be slightly lower due to being made in china by 11 year old slave laborers Manufacturer Support: haven't had to use it, don't anticipate any problems, but ampeg and zzounds have great reputations for customer support. The Wow Factor: cool looking, great sounding. couldn't ask for more. except "i want it" to be made in the u.s.a Overall: i have played comparable units from swr, fender, the ba115hpt from ampeg, line 6, and plenty of others. this thing is the best by far. the only gripe i have is made in china, but when i turn it on and crank it up i pretty much forget about that.
Style of Music: rowdy punk rock

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. Ampeg B200R Rocket Amp Customer Review
Sound: I've owned a Peavy Combo 300 for two years. The rich clear warm sound of this tubed Preamp is superb in the B200R. I play 50 & 60's rock & roll, blues and pop music. I also play some folk and basic blue grass through a Hoffner wannabe. In a pinch in will work as an acoustic guitar amp too. Feature: For what I play this is the best. Tubed Preamp. Basic EQ with enhanced Ultra high, mid & low. XLR line out. Headphones out with level adjustment. You can select bass with or without tweeter. Classic amp look. Ease of Use: Still figuring it out; so far easy as eating pie. Actually far easier to use than my Peavy which utilizes 8 band equalization. My needs are pretty basic and I run a DigiTech BP80 through for some distortion and also heavy reverb. Pipeline sounds awesome. Quality: I've had less than a week. Looks perfect. I cut down the power chord strap because it otherwise makes it difficult to get the power chord unraveled. It looks and feels solid, but too early make prediction on reliability. Ampeg does have a good rep, but this one is made in China and only time will tell. But for the price Zzounds sells it for at $350 it's like stealing. You can attach caster rollers that it comes with, but those things would make the amp rattle (on any amp)so I've used a collapsible folding cart with larger softer wheels. Value: Definitely worth the price. Manufacturer Support: I chose Ampeg because other friends that play bass like Ampeg. I've had no reason to contact them. The Wow Factor: I like the classic look which is a bonus. It is simply a great sounding amp. Overall: It sounds great. Still too early to make a real prediction. If lost or stolen TODAY I would replace with same. Good looks, great sound and a great price.
Style of Music: 50, 60"s Rock & Roll and Pop. Blues and some folk early popular music of the 30's, 40's...
