How about the Ampeg SVT 7 Pro flipped out of a Pro Neo xxxx?
For a big flip, I'd love to see an SVT 7 Pro flipped out of an 810E.
What's your flip-top fantasy? No need to confine it to Ampeg. |

100w B15 N (not an R model) than flips out of a 2x15 thiele cab ?

Oh, it'd also play itself.
Better yet, a 8x 8417 amp that flipped out of an 8x15....

If it's got 200 or more watts behind it...that's what I'd like to see.

no i wouldn't
i would, however, like to see a fliptop small combo with an easily removable micro head. then you wouldn't need a separate bag for the micro head. of course, it's not as cost effective as it is to mount a couple brackets on top of a small cab so i doubt we'll ever see it.

Well, I suppose I do have some skill, maybe even more than one, but none of them include making anything useful.

It's a heck of an amp, while you're dreaming...

RAG, are you out there?

What's a flip-top? |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: San Diego | | | The head flips over and stores inside the cabinet. It is the very definition of "vintage" as it was used very extensively throughout the sixties on recordings. (Jamerson used it almost exclusively on his Motown recordings.) Even today, pretty much any studio will have one.
