2000年3月24日 · Got my August Bassplayer today in the mail and read the favorable review of the Ampeg B5R head. Seems like quite alot of "bang for the buck"! I like the idea of having 2 channel capability (clean & overdrive) and the ability to blend the …

2015年7月20日 · Yea.. I dont think either amp head is real good ampeg amplifier. A guy on kijiji said he paid $1150 for a B5R brand new. The cab is a Ampeg 4x10 classic series with three horns. Horns let out the higher frequencies without the sound being flat or dull. I think you are correct, the heads are probably worth $300 and the cab I would say $350-$400.

2001年5月9日 · hey I have an b5r that I use with a avatar 410 cab and am very impressed with it I have never played an all tube head but I have played an svt pro3 I think (the ones with just the tube pre) and it keeps up with that pretty well the overdrive is not quite as warm because there is no tube not that it is bad just different than a tube head I play a presicion and a jazz and it sounds good on both ...

2001年7月12日 · I used to own a B5R (only reason being that I got an incredible deal), and though it definitely rocked, it lacked the kind of tone control that a 9 band EQ offers up. Not only that, but it didn't have that tube warmth that you'll be able to get with the 3 Pro. I traded my B5R toward my 4 Pro, and I haven't looked back.

2000年7月25日 · A few months shy of 20 years! I use a B5R with one (or sometimes two) Kustom Groove Bass 4x10 cab(s). The amp is in great condition and sounds fantastic. After using it for a decade or so, I still feel no need to upgrade.

2005年1月12日 · Ampeg are one of the more top $$ range as are Eden etc... others seem happy with their GK amps, Ashdown are nice too-depends what sound U want- I've played bass(in AUS.) live in pubs etc.. for 26yrs-since I was about 15 & have used tube heads ALWAYS(until a couple of yrs ago) & NEVER had a problem cutting thru a band-even when the rest of the ...

2012年2月15日 · Hey guys, I played a bunch of amps today in the $500 used range and I really liked both of these. But I'm just starting bass and I don't really know much about them yet. I think I liked the Ampeg a bit more but I don't have an ear for bass tone. Which is more quality and which would you prefer...
