Ampeg BA-112v2 Bass Combo Amplifier

Ampeg's Bass Scrambler overdrive gives you the thick and gritty tone of an amp three times as powerful -- within a compact amp with monitor-style tilt back.

Love everything about this amp.....except the fan noise. It is on par with some bathroom fans at hardware store displays. I was shocked. I played on it for five minutes, wrapped it up nice and neat and put it back in the box it came in and filled out a return from. It is so bad that part of me wonders if it is damaged.If I was going to play loud I am sure the fan noise would not bother me much. Unfortunately, I tend to practice at lower volumes while the family is home. The more I tried to ignore it, the louder it got. I am extremely disappointed.Again, if I could reduce/eliminate the fan noise, I would be on here raving about it. It is built tough. The control layout is fantastic. Fit and finish are first class. The scrambler is sweat.If you plan on playing at moderate or loud levels I think you will be very happy. If you are expecting crystal clear sound at lower levels I think you had better go play on one, better yet just turn one on, before you buy. I wish I had.

Musical Background:

I doubt anyone could go wrong with an Ampeg! I love being able to play along to songs on media wearing headphones which the neighbors love too! And the Ampeg tone and sound is amazing! Incredibly versatile, get just about any sound I want our need. As for the scrambler I am not a big fan of distorted or overdriven bass, just a touch for the classic sound on the Moving Pictures album by Rush so I'll let others give an evaluation on that. LOUD, and it THUMPS! don't let 75 watts cool you it'll just your ears!

Musical Background:

Progressive, Avant garde.
