From Our Research Team:

The SVT goes small with the SVT Micro Head!

The SVT Micro head is a pint-sized amp that's chock full of the same classic tone that made the original SVT such a bass powerhouse. The SVT Micro is perfect for recording or live sound situations where the SVT Classic is too much horsepower, but you still want the SVT sound that has been the industry standard for nearly four decades. The perfect companion to the SVT Micro is the SVT210AV, a compact 2 x 10" cabinet. For situations where you need SVT sound without SVT volume or girth, the SVT Micro is a perfect choice.



Ampeg SVT Micro Head at a Glance:
  • SVT sound
  • Perfect for lower volume situations

SVT sound
The sound and feel of the legendary SVT is alive and well in the SVT Micro Head. The solid-state preamp and MOSFET power amp interact for the punch and crunch that makes the full-sized SVT the sound of bass - a title the SVT has held since 1969. Plus, its compact size makes it easier to lug from gig to gig that its bigger siblings that weigh in much heavier.

Perfect for lower volume situations
Sometimes the gig doesn't require the sheer amount of horsepower afforded by the 300-watt+ heads of the traditional SVT line. The SVT Micro Head fits this bill beautifully, with an ample-but-not-overpowering 200 watts of power at 4 ohms. Tone shaping is provided via the Ultra Mid control and the 3-band EQ. Balanced line out with pre/post and pad are also included. Don't forget the cabinet with the SVT210AV.

Ampeg SVT Micro Head Features:
  • Preamp: Solid State
  • Power Amp: MOSFET
  • RMS Power Output: 200 Watts @ 4 ohms
  • Tone Controls: 3-Band
  • Mid Tone Control: Ultra Mid
  • Balanced Line Out: with Pre/Post and Pad
  • Dimensions (W x H x D inches): 12 x 5.5 x 10

Recommended Accessories

My Sales Engineer helped me place the order and advised when the guitar would be shipped. Once Sweetwater received the guitar, it was quickly set up and I received it the next day. The guitar was in tune and set up properly.

This a great looking and sounding little amp!

Music Background: Pro/ hobbyist Musician
I needed a practice amp that would work for small to medium gigs. I'm a old school type of guy, keep it simple. This amp is prefect! Great looks, solid sound with that svt look without the weight.... read more [+] I can't wait to try it out at the gig! Again, sweetwater is the best! P.S. thanks for the candy! close [-]

Not bad if using 4 ohm setup

It is a great sounding amp, but it holds it's own during practice only if you have two cabinets plugged in.

I'm considering a second one.

Great Sound, Great Price, Almost Perfect

This is a very nice lightweight amp. I also have a 1970's Ampeg B410 combo and this amp sounds much better (played through the B410's speakers, so it's a good comparison). Also much louder than I ex... read more [+]pected, so don't think it's just a toy. My only complaints are that the fan is a little loud if you're playing softly and the tolex could be a little more scratch resistant. close [-]

great little head

This is a very good head especially considering the size and price. This little guy is just as at home driving full size 4x10 and 8x10 cabs as it is powering the matching 2x10. While running it throug... read more [+]h an 8x10 it only gets slightly warm (the gk head i had before it would always run very hot). The sound is pretty good but even so i run it through a pretty extensive rack rig to get my perfect ideal sound (a slightly driven svt type of sound with a little more balls) close [-]

Sweetwater Advice

AJ Petersen
This is the perfect bass amp for churches or the gigging musician playing small venues. This setup is small and portable and surprisingly loud and powerful. If you don't think the 2x10 cab is enough, get two and link them together.
