Ampeg GVT52-212 Combo Guitar Amplifier at a Glance:
  • Double the channels, double the tone
  • Dual-mode power switch adds extra versatility
  • Baxandall EQ circuitry provides total tone control
Double the channels, double the tone

To give you twice the GVT tone, Ampeg gave the GVT52-212 two independent channels. Channel 1 lets you dial in anything from glassy clean tone to classic rock crunch. Take your tone even farther, with the GVT53-212's second channel, which ranges from mild breakup to total saturated overdrive - perfect for soaring leads!

Dual-mode power switch adds extra versatility

Ampeg's GVT52-212 combo guitar amplifier is built to give you a wide range of tone and plenty of output. But for smaller venues and rehearsal, 50 watts may be a bit too much. No problem! Just flip the dual-mode switch and drop the GVT52-212 down to 25-watts. At half the output, the GVT52-212 delivers all of the tone and drive you crave, at the volume you need.

Baxandall EQ circuitry provides total tone control

Here's something you just don't see on a guitar amplifier: Baxandall EQ curves. This style of EQ curve was a big hit among music producers, because it boosts and cuts frequencies in a smoother, more effective way than traditional EQ curves. When Ampeg decided to give the GVT52-212 combo guitar amplifier this kind of EQ curve, they knew what they were doing. When you start tweaking the GVT52-212's EQ, you'll be blown away by the truly massive range of great tone you can get out of this amplifier!
