For over 50 years Ampeg has been designing and building

amplification for musicians. From big band swing to arena rock . . .

Ampeg is there. Innovations keep coming...the SVT head,

the B-15 Portaflex, offerings from the Pro-Series and

new PortaBass Series...bass players have more choices

than ever before. Whether you’re looking for your first quality

bass amplifier, or seeking the ultimate stage rig, Ampeg has

the range of products to suit all of your musical needs.

All Ampeg products are built in the U.S.A. and come with

a five year transferrable warranty.

Ampeg . . .The Power of Bass.

3

The SVT. . . that unmistakable

Ampeg sound. Since the late

Sixties bass players have recognized

Super Vacuum Tube technology, or SVT,

as the reference point of tone by which

all other bass amplifiers are compared.

The SVT-810E classic enclosure with its

infinite baffle design has been the standard

bass cabinet on stages since introduced in 1969.

The physics of the cabinet design coupled with the

10” drivers give the 810E that unique sound that bass

players around the world have come to expect from their rig.

C L A S S I C S E R I E S

The SVT is the original all-tube bass amplifier driven by six 6550 power tubes for massive power and tone.

TRACTRIX wave-guide coaxial speakers add a high frequency driver to the SVT-810HPC while maintaining the integrity of the Classic SVT-810E infinite baffle design.

Heavy duty variable-speed fans keep the power sections cool. The SVT-CL and AV heads feature a user-biasing control that allows you to retube your amplifier and ensure optimal tone and power from your head.

5

C L A S S I C S E R I E S H E A D SThe all-tube SVT Classic and SVT-AV are direct descendents

of the original SVT head, but with modern enhancements like

a five-position mid frequency selector, input gain, master

volume, and tube protection circuitry. By using six 6550

power tubes and original transformer technology,

Ampeg creates the classic tone of the Sixties and

Seventies that others can only try to emulate.

The V4BH features the exact same all-tube preamp as the CL and AV

models, but uses a quartet of 6L6 tubes for its output. It also

features a power amp presence boost switch making it a great

head for cabinets with horns. The SVT-350H uses solid-state

MOSFET technology delivering the most tube-like feel of

anything in its class. The optocoupler limiter circuit

prevents power amp distortion, no matter

how loudly you play.

Classic Series Enclosures have become the sonic reference point for

all other bass cabinets. They all feature Neutrik Speakon® and

1/4” input/output jacks. All enclosures with high frequency

horns feature true 1” compression drivers, a variable

attenuator, and a high positive-current coefficient

resistor bulb for horn protection.

The new SVT-412HE and SVT-18 add another dimension to the Classic Series. The SVT-412HE is a punchy,

explosive enclosure that pushes huge low end while delivering tight and articulate mids and highs.

The SVT-18 features a cast-frame 18” driver that will handle up to 1000 watts of peak power

for massive focused bottom end.

Lighten-Up. The PortaBass Series of products is

engineered for the active modern bass player that values portability as

well as excellent tone. PortaBass heads feature our patented Micro-Dynamic

Technology (MDT) power amp circuitry. This technology eliminates bulky heat

sinks and large fans because it is 95% efficient. The PB-250 pushes 250 watts and

weighs only 14 pounds. The PB-800 delivers up to 800 watts RMS, can accommodate two

different instruments at the same time, and weighs only 20 pounds. These heads deliver a

transparent hi-fi sound perfect for a hot-rodded custom 5-string, an electric upright,

or a vintage classic from the Sixties.

P O R T A B A S S S E R I E S

The Micro-Dynamic Technology (MDT) output section of the PB-250 is so efficient it does away with heavy heat sinks and fans while producing 250 watts of output power.

PortaBass enclosures employ a new speaker using Neodymium magnet structures. Neodymium is hyper-magnetic and extremely powerful, yet is almost weightless compared to traditional ceramic magnet designs.

A true 1” compression driver is used to reproduce high frequencies accurately, no matter which bass you are using.

The variable L-pad controls the high frequency volume so you can fine tune the “breathing” range of your sound.

23

PortaBass combos are designed to give you more tone, more

clarity, more power and better portability than any other

combos in their class. They feature MDT power amp circuitry

combined with PortaBass Neodymium

speaker magnet technology. The high

quality lightweight plywood

cabinet resonates to enhance

your tone, but is amazingly

easy to move. A telescoping

handle and “easy-glide”

casters will help you

maneuver from car to

stage. The PBC-2112

and PBC-2210 provide

players with all the

advantages of PortaBass

components, but with

the ease and convenience

of a self-contained unit.

P O RTA B A S S H E A D S , CO M B O S & E N C LO S U R E S The stairway, the parking lot, the revolving front door, the crowded night

club...these are just a few of the obstacles that most working bass players

have to maneuver night after night. PortaBass heads, enclosures, and

combo amplifiers make your life a lot easier. The PB-250 weighs only

14 pounds and provides all the power and tone you need for small to

medium sized venues. If you need more power, plug into the

800 watt PB-800. Weighing only 20 pounds, it won’t

break your back either. PortBass enclosures and combo

amps employ a new speaker design that does away with

traditional heavy magnets and baskets. Using special,

lightweight Neodymium magnets, these speakers

deliver incredible power and tone. The cabinets

are constructed of high-quality Italian Poplar

Plywood that is resonant and portable.

The PB-210H is a great tone box weighing

only 32 pounds, and the PB-212H is a

powerhouse that tips the scales at

just under 38 pounds! A removable

telescoping handle allows you to

“roll” to the stage, even while

carrying your upright bass.
