Ampeg SVTVR Bass Amplifier Head (300 Watts)

Tubes, tubes, and more tubes! The new Ampeg SVT-VR is a vintage reissue of an early 1970s “Blue-Line” SVT head. The preamp stage, power section, and even rocker switches emulate the exact signal path, tone, and vibe of the original rock ’n’ roll workhorse. Authentic from its input jack all the way to its six 6550 output tubes, the SVT-VR is a must-have for rockers seeking that in-your-face Ampeg bass tone. Learn More...

Feature:
The wheels and handle help manage this beast. Without them it would be almost impossible. Still...this cabinet is not for the faint.

Quality:
Pay less...get crap. Your choice, not mine.

Value:
With everything else I've owned (Hartke, Sunn, Carvin, Fender), you "pays your money you takes your chances." Not with Ampeg,

Desirability:
If you're looking for hot chicks...this thing will help you work out and build muscles, but it won't attract any. It's an amp, not a magic lamp. But if you're looking for the best sound around...if tone and musicality is what you're trying to achieve, this cabinet paired with an Ampeg SVT-VR is a sure thing.

Sound:
The sound all cabinets aspire to. That classic tone from the past, that nothing else can touch.

Support:
Hasn't broken yet...the best support I know of, not needing any. :D

Overall:
Until I cannot handle it anymore, it will be my gig amp. After that...well, it will sit in my basement and be my practice amp until I die or cannot play any more. Life's too short, why settle for less?
