Extremely LTD Bass Combo!

The LTD edition Heritage B-15 expands Ampeg's lineup of premium bass amps. This particular model achieves extreme collector's status, as only 50 of these hand-built and hand-wired units are available. Built and wired entirely in the USA, the B-15 amplifier features the classic Ampeg "flip-top" design with a chrome-plated chassis and a Baltic birch and poplar cabinet. The amp itself features two vintage-flavored preamp circuits - Channel 1 is "1964," Channel 2 is "1966." The famous Baxandall bass/treble tone stack is available on both channels.

Brian Cravens
The Ampeg Heritage B-15 takes us back to Ampeg's roots. I owned an original B15, and the new one has that same incredible warm tone. It may "only" be 30 watts, but it's the biggest, baddest, LOUDEST 30 watts you'll ever hear! Awesome tones. I can't wait to get my hands on one!
