Official Ampeg Club!: Part II

[My name is Mudd]

Earlier today, I got my very first Ampeg, a BA210sp. The amp has more history in the forum than I do - I got it from Bassteban, who got it from JoshB. I supposed someday I should follow tradition and pass it on, but for now its mine. Mine, I say! Bwahaha!

Number, please - pics later, after the Nikon battery charges.

I just got back from hearing a vintage Ampeg SVT for the first time. It was paired with a newer Ampeg 6x10.

It was a smaller venue (~100 person capacity), and the amplifier was surely overkill for the occasion, but it absolutely blew my socks off. The bassist was using a passive vintage J-bass from the same '70s ear.

It was a religious experience. The master was cranked, but it didn't feel like the amp was being pushed at all. It had an organic natural compression, and a beautiful clean tone. Kind of boxy, but I loved it. It made the band.

Kind of like hearing an Aguilar DB 750 for the first time. (I love my Aguilar, and wouldn't trade it for anything... except maybe a vintage SVT.)

Yours is one club I wouldn't object to being a member of! My goodness!

I play my SX P-bass and Galveston fretless bass out of my Ampeg BA-115. I hope that will get my "foot in the door"! lol!

I just bought an Ampeg BA115, I'll love a number!

Aaah maan, I just can't decide between the ba 112 and the ba 115, isn't the ba 115 kinda big and heavy?

 

[Rob Martinez]

I have an Ampeg BA112 and love it!

I also just put a used made in the USA Ampeg B100R on hold at a local store, for $275!!! Nice condition, and works great!

 

[dukest4]

I've a BA112 too. Great sound, it's all you need at home, or for a quiet practice session.

Hi,

New member here.

I use an SVT-cl through, depending on venue/my mood 810E, 410HLF, V4-B or SVT50DL.

At the sharp end I use a Rickenbacker 4001CS or a Stingray
