Feature:
It has all the "features" one could need....(altho a compressor might be nice sometimes in recording situations.)it has all the bells and whistles(or lack of) that I need to perform.

Quality:
Like I said its an Ampeg. built tough,rugged....mean like a junk-yard dog....mine was used and had a few "battle scars" but nevertheless kept true to its personality and performed exellent when ever called upon.

Value:
its a bit pricey but overall darn well worth it....you certainly get what you pay for..

Desirability:
Ah yes the blue/green tolex covereing retro thing...... looks very...I mean very very cool!....like its name the Rocket bass its a tough mother......but dressed to kill..looks good under harsh lighting too!

Sound:
This little guy is basically a tank wrapped in a shark-skin suit that can bellow out with the best of them,whether it be indoors or out.No frills on this amp !! just pure power and sound if you play jazz rock blues country or funk the settings on this amp can set up very easily to your liking.It has that"Ampeg sound" to it and for those of you that play bass thru an ampeg?. you know what I mean.Exellent lows...nice mids and funky highs..be sure you play with it until you get your sound and make certain the gainlight is in its green color.You'll be very happy.

Ease of Use:
very very simple........just make certain that you play with it first...test it see which settings you like with the 3 presets and the 3 settings.The manual on this amp is LESS THAN 1 PAGE LONG !! and pretty much tells you what you need to know in plain english.

Support:
Appearantly,Ampeg has sold its parts area to Loud Tecnologies out of Washington state.I needed a "stove knob" for the gain and I simplycalled Loud placed the order(cost me .64) and it arrived,late but it did arrive.

Overall:
I need no other back up......period...this amp does meet my musical goals as a bass player and then some...If I lost this amp?.. I'd buy another for sure....it does weigh 65 LBS. soooo its a little beefy but not nearly as bad as some other bass amps I've played thru(including some of Ampegs other great amps)try it.....you'll like it !

Feature:
No accessories included, but what is there really helps, if u adjust the gain to master volume properly, it helps it sound extremely well.

Quality:
Just picking it up i said, wow this is awesome. It looks really cool too, the tolex is just sweet. I don't need a back up with this, it would sit around and collect dust forever

Value:
It is perfectly priced for what features you get. it is wonderful, and i am sure that i will not have anyproblems with it.

Desirability:
From the time i pluged in, i was hooked, there was no way i was going home without this amp.

Sound:
IT has amazing sound, it makes my bass sound much better than the old crate i was using. Everyone was like wow in the room when i fired it up to play. It has great use for the music i play, such as Rock, sometimes funk solos, it is perfect.

Support:
i haven't had to talk with them, the unit works perfect, no problems ever.

Overall:
I don't have anyplans to get anything new, but i will say this, when/ if i get a new amp, i will be purhcasing from ampeg again.

Feature:
This does exactly what you want it to do, nothing less, and (not really a bad thing) nothing more. It's got all the familiar options that you would find on any other amp.

Quality:
Overall, the amp is pretty well made. On mine, there's a little wear and tear on the handle and cover, but that's partially because of mishandling. It's the kind of amp I could sit there and beat on repeatedly seeing how many hours it would take to break. As other people said, it's built like a tank.

Value:
You get what you pay for, that's all I really have to say.

Desirability:
When I first got the amp, it wasn't really into the build of it, but it's grown on me over time.

Sound:
It sounds great! I'm a grungy/garage rock type bassist, and it caters to my style. Even at full volume, you won't have to worry about crackling or anything odd.

Ease of Use:
I didn't have any problems trying to use the amp. That's saying something, considering I got it without a manual. As long as you know what you're doing and what does what, you'll get the sound you want.

Support:
I haven't dealt with the company, so I scored it in the middle.

Overall:
I play for a band, and expect (and hope) for it to last for a long time. I really don't see any reason for me to have to buy another amp for a couple years.

Feature:
More the enough for small to medium venues.

Quality:
Built like a nuclear fallout shelter.

Value:
Not in the starter amp area but you get what you pay for. You cannot but a price on quality anyway.

Desirability:
Brilliant in every way.

Sound:
The sound is fantastic; vintage all the way. Tube sound with solid state components is amazing.

Ease of Use:
Plug and play...what's not to like?

Support:
Haven't used them yet; and don't expect to. But I've heard good things from others.

Overall:
I'll keep this forever. If it were stolen I would replace it immediately.

I was in Germany on my second Honeymoon and entered the only music store of the town (Heidelberg) because of this little felow. Well, what can I say? It left the store with me. I almost despaired when the Hotel bellhop dropped it, but to my amazement the amp resisted with minor damage. This kid is strong, both on sound and on structure. My old Gallien-Krueger head is now for sale.

I have owned a Peavey TKO 80 and a Crate Bx 160. I play a Fender j and p bass. My B100r Blows the doors off the crate and the wattage rating is about half! The sounds that come out of this amp make you want to play. This is what a bass amp should sound like. Have used it @ small and medium gigs its got all the headroom I need. Cool looking to.

I've been playing for 7 years and this is the best sounding 100 watt combo amp i've played on. I play a Jackson C5-A and the amp gives me plenty of options to play anything i want from slap filled punk all the way to punk.

Very nice sounding amp. I use it with a early seventies StingRayBass (4 string ash 4-bolt neck)and it is a very articulated amp. I donot find the three "makes it dull" switches and I wondered about the "low Mid" pot when I tried it out, but I did purchase it and although it will never replace my Sun Concert, it certinly is easier to handle and has a wide range of adjustments and has that "old" flavor. It even sounds good with the "Spector" and basic Yahama platform basses. I am primarly using it for guitar to get that very clean bass only transistors can provide, was using a fender bassman head and I'm just gonna have to mod it now. I have had this amp for a couple of years now and it is trouble free and reliable. Other than the Sun, this is the only other transistor amp I own, in a stable of (mostly FENDER) amps dating back to 1958 and except for this one, as late as 1975. (OK, is 15 amps too many? no repeats) Bob

this is one of my favorite amps its tone is so nice and it it styleish and affordable
