Ampeg

collapse expand iconDescription

The Ampeg Rocket Bass 115 amp is a high-performance amp with 200 watts of power packed into a portable cabinet. It features a 3-band EQ, an overdrive circuit and an effects loop to expand the tonal possibilities, while an XLR output directly connects to a PA or recorder. An auxiliary input makes it easy to jam to external audio sources, and a headphone out keeps the noise levels down for the neighbors. The RB 115 is an ideal combo for the bassist looking for an amp versatile enough to go from practice to performance with no problem.

Main Features

  • 200W
  • Solid-state amplifier, 3-band EQ, Super Grit overdrive (footswitch-capable), effects loop
  • XLR out, headphone out, extension speaker out, auxiliary in
  • 15" custom Eminence speaker

Powerful and Lightweight

Weighing only 34 lb., it's easy to move the Rocket Bass from the bedroom to the garage, or into the van for a gig. The solid-state power section is a massive 200 watts, enough to handle stages of all sizes. The 15" custom Eminence speaker delivers warm, rich tone and deep bass.

Super Grit Technology/3-band EQ

Clean sound is great for Sunday morning jam sessions, but when it’s time to kick it up a notch, the Rocket Bass is ready. The Super Grit overdrive provides more punch; the 3-band EQ and Ultra Hi/Ultra Lo switches make it easy to add your own sonic flavor to the mix.

Versatile Inputs and Outputs

Plug the 115 directly to a mixing board with the XLR out, or connect another cabinet with the extension speaker input. This Ampeg also offers an effects loop, auxiliary input and headphone output.

Vintage Style

Streamlined ’60s style puts the focus right where it should be—on stellar bass tone. The Rocket Bass RB-115 features easily accessible top-mounted controls and a classic vintage design that sets the stage perfectly for laying down bass grooves from any era.

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.
