A totally modern, hybrid version of the famous SVT.

The power section is solid state with a toroidal transformer that generates less noise and magnetic interference. Delivers 450W @ 4 ohms and has an arsenal of tone-shaping tools: 3 bands of tone, a 5-position mid selector, 9-band graphic EQ, plus low and high boosts. Other pro features include input peak LED, input pad and bright switch, mute function, tuner out, variable line-out level, time-delayed turn on, DC-supplied filaments, and variable fan speed. 2U rackmount.

On May 1st, 2009, the Mackie, TAPCO, Crate, Blackheart and Ampeg websites will be updated with the addition of warranty URLs (e.g. www.mackie.com/warranty) expressing new A Stock warranty terms. These warranty URLs will go live on May 1st, 2009. Formerly, warranty periods for these LOUD brands appeared in a variety of locations – in product manuals (for Mackie and TAPCO) and on warranty cards and hang tags (for Crate, Blackheart and Ampeg).

Meanwhile, the products that bear with them the new warranty periods (as reflected in the box contents of each product) are being tracked by serial #, and contain new warranty content referring customers to the appropriate brand website.

  • Killer 450W Head

    As reviewed by SpectorDude on 1/15/2007

    I bought this amp almost on a whim. When it came down to it, it was either a GK or this. This amp is a LOUD 450 Watts. When I first got it home and hooked it up to my 4x10, I about blew the patio doors off my place. This amp has tons of bottom, and with some EQ tweaking, the mids and highs sing. Work very well with my active 5-string. Also, the size and weight, with tubes, is amazing. If you got the cash - get it.

  • SVT 3 Pro Review

    As reviewed by Kinkaid on 4/12/2011

    I picked this up about 2 years ago so I've really had a chance to live with it and use it in many situations. It is definitely a superior piece of equipment. I also own and play through a 59 Fender Bassman 5o (Great tube sound but nowhere near the power of the svt), and a tuck and roll Kustom. The svt is by far my fav. I run it through an svt 4x10 up top and an svt1x15 underneath and get a great range of sound, fat, low bottoms, clear crisp highs, and plenty of punch in the middle. My biggest and really only complaint would be the occasional interception of radio signals. my fender tube dose this as well and i've experienced it in other tube amps. In practice situations any worrys of not cutting through are put right to bed, even during double bass drum blasts and obnoxious guitar players. This power makes it suitable for pretty much all gigs and for the larger ones(6-12 hundred people) it has a direct line out for the p.a. so no more little box to fool with. and on stage with the right speakers you will feel it, so monitors are not so important. Unless for what ever reason you need more power I would recommend this amp to any one. Their also tough as hell mine took a drop from the top of the stack when some sound guy decided it would be easer to just push the whole thing from the bottom I plugged it in and it started right up. So in summation. Great range of sound, plenty of power, Fat , clear, and crisp, lots of pro extras five stars.

  • Can't Go Wrong

    As reviewed by Kyle on 3/27/2008

    I recently got this amp as an upgrade from my Ampeg BA115 combo because I kept getting drowned out in practice. It sounds incredible through my SVT 4x10 Classic cab with a Fender Jazz bass. The tube preamp gives it the warm rich tube tone that serious bass players are looking for and the 450W solid state power amp will make sure that no one will be able to drown you out. This thing is a beast! There is also an insane number of features so you can dial in the exact tone you are looking for to get the perfect sound for your situation and style. The graphic EQ allows you to shape the exact sound you want which I love. The possibilities with this amp are almost endless. You really can't go wrong with this amp for the money. Its a serious rig for those players that want great tone, power, and features but don't want to break the bank on an all tube SVT Classic. Ampeg is the only brand of bass amps I will ever buy again because their tone is unmatchable.
