Ampeg

Hi guys,

I am a big fan of ampeg tone.

I currently have a ba115hp - the 220w version. I like it but it doesn't quite do the chunky classic ampeg tone.

Someone is selling a micro svt head and cab locally at a price I find agreeable. I'd our likely to get me closer to the classic ampg sound?

The micro is apparently more classic Ampeg sound. Probably even more likely if connected to a bunch of Ampeg 10s rather than a 15 - am assuming you`re thinking more of the classic SVT sound.

Might be wise to do a talkbass search and see if you can pick up any views/opinions from Jimmy M - he`s Ampeg nuts, and his opinions are usually pretty much spot on re Ampeg.

Or try a Tech 21 VT bass pedal mate. I'd highly recommend them.

I would agree, the tech 21 gives a more Ampeg sound than my SVT Pro7 which just sounds like a generic class D amp, not that there's anything wrong with the Pro 7 it just doesn't sound very Ampeg to me
