Ampeg Micro-VR 200-Watt Bass Amp Head, Limited-Edition Blue

Manufacturer’s Description

Ampeg Micro Series Amps deliver the same commitment to beautifully burnished, round sound as the SVT®, just in a much smaller package. They make an ideal recording or small-to-medium-gig solution for bass players that favor rich fundamental and track-ready tone. While their distinctive good looks make them an instant conversation piece, their beauty is more than skin deep. Whether you opt for the vintage-style Micro-VR or the more contemporarily appointed Micro-CL, you’re getting a pro-level amp with all the key features needed to get any job done—from studio to stage.

While the Micro-VR may look cute, don’t think it isn’t a serious tone machine. Ampeg engineers used the burly SVT-VR as their design touchstone, and the result is every bit as capable as its larger sibling, only smaller. The head offers 200 watts of MOSFET power into a 4-ohm load—its ideal partner is the SVT-210AV cabinet, a hardy 2×10 with the same sealed Infinite Baffle design as the classic SVT 8×10 cab. Together, the rig offers authoritative, fundamental-rich tone ideal for small gigs, rehearsals, apartment living, and bleed-sensitive recording situations. And while its tone might be its most alluring feature; its traditional look makes it a lust-worthy collectible sure to start conversation wherever it lives.
