I still think Ampeg is my favourite amp brand and I’ve owned
SVT-CL
V4B x 2off
Ampeg PF500
Ampeg PF800
About to become a PF800 owner again soon as I prefer the look of them compared to the Venture Series
Having sold off my big gig stuff I’m considering a 500w class D head to use partly at home and gigs if the opportunity arises ( may or may not )
Not looking at high end stuff and perhaps second hand
Really fancy an Ampeg PF500 or 800 to match my only remaining SVT112AV cab but open to other suggestions
Ideally max price £700
What do you guys suggest ?
Anyone holding on to a PF series ?
I’ve just got the Ampeg Micro VR yo use with my SVT112AV cab
It’s a nice amp for the money and definitely an Ampeg tone
Some claim it has a noisy fan but I found it to be quieter than the Trace Elf and acceptable
Very light and small and perfect for home use or acoustic small venue gigs
It was until I pulled it from sale and decided to make a home rig out of it with the Micro VR head
They are lovely looking cabs too, important for home use
Might pop feet on end so I can flip it on to its end like BF cabs tend to do
Well I agree it was a bargain for someone else to enjoy and I’ve no regrets selling my large heavy rigs.
I will miss them but then remember I don’t need them at all only a sensible small rig at home so I can play when I feel the urge
So some already know I’ve quit playing live gigs and was selling all my gear.
Ive decided to hang on to my American PBass and SVT112AV cab and today have ordered the Ampeg Micro VR head as a neat home only rig.
The rest of my gear is sold or up for sale ( two Vintera basses ) but I felt I would miss playing at home hence the mini rig
