Celebrating 50 years of bass amp innovation, Ampeg presents the Heritage SVT 50th Anniversary Bass Amp Head. Handcrafted in the USA with premium components, this flagship amp distills Ampeg's most coveted circuits into a single, stage ready powerhouse with essential modern features. The Heritage SVT 50th Anniversary is the SVT bassists have been dreaming of.

Iconic 1969 "Blueline" and 1975 "Blackline" Tones United

The Heritage SVT 50th Anniversary offers two discrete preamp channels that duplicate the tones from Ampeg's most sought after eras: the original 1969 "Blueline" SVT and the mid '70s "Blackline." Jump the channels together for an aggressive, all new sound. Six hand selected Ampeg Super Valve 6550 tubes deliver these legendary tones reliably.

Essential Modern Technology

While the 1969 SVT was revolutionary, today's players expect more. The Heritage SVT 50th Anniversary includes a balanced XLR DI output, simple user biasing, a whisper quiet fan and a Neutrik speakON jack for any speaker cabinet. Most importantly, it's built in the USA with top quality components, honoring Ampeg's legacy of American craftsmanship.

Period Perfect Style

With engraved "Blueline" graphics, text, and handles, the Heritage SVT 50th Anniversary looks the part of a vintage SVT. Collectors and tone connoisseurs will appreciate the meticulous attention to detail in every etch and curve that gives this amp its instant vintage appeal.

Unmatched Power and Performance

When the 300W SVT debuted in 1969, it redefined bass amplification, giving bassists the volume to compete with deafening guitar stacks. The Heritage SVT 50th Anniversary continues this tradition of power, performance and balance, delivering a sound that has fueled generations of iconic music. There is no amp like the Ampeg SVT.

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).
