Ampeg SVT450H Bass Amplifier Head (450 Watts) Reviews

"Stop reading reviews and buy this amp!"
Feature:
The best features are simplicity and durability.

Quality:
The amp I received is cosmetically perfect, was packed well and tough. Good handles. The ONLY thing I don't like is that the angle of the control panel doesn't protect the knobs. That's just the classic design, I overcome this by packing it carefully in a travel case.

Value:
If you buy cheap, you'll buy twice. If you want Ampeg tone, durability and dependability, get this rig.

Desirability:
It's Ampeg. It's right at home next to our two Marshall stacks. With this thing at the end of your cable it tells the crowd you're a serious bassist.

Sound:
I own a solid state BA115 and wanted the same sound for the stage. This amp delivers. It has a clean, warm tone despite being tubless. I played five shows with this on an 8-10 enclosure with NO effects and the on-board EQ off and received many compliments on my tone. There's plenty of tonal range to play with. If you like the solid state practice amps, you'll love this one. No problems getting good sound to the PA through the XLR line-out.

Ease of Use:
A very classic, straightforward amp.

Support:
No issues yet, but their online info was top notch. I was confident buying this rig sight unseen based on the reasearch I was able to do at the computer.

Overall:
This amp gives distinct Ampeg tone without the extra weight, hassle and dependability issues with tubes. If you like the BA115 you'll love this one.
