The Ampeg V-4B delivers classic all-tube Ampeg tone in a lighter, more compact format with its own unmistakable grind, warmth, and vintage character.
- 100-watt all-tube bass amplifier head
- Classic Ampeg tube warmth with rich harmonic overdrive
- Lighter and more compact than a full SVT platform
- Vintage-inspired 1970s cosmetics and styling
- Flexible 2, 4, and 8 Ohm operation for multiple cabinet setups
While the SVT remains the benchmark for massive stage bass amplification, the V-4B holds its own legendary place within Ampeg history. Delivering 100 watts of pure tube-driven bass tone at nearly half the weight of a traditional SVT rig, the V-4B offers a more compact approach without sacrificing the unmistakable feel and authority of classic Ampeg amplification.
The V-4B has its own unique sonic identity. Its all-tube design delivers rich low-end warmth, dynamic response, and a natural overdriven texture that becomes especially rewarding when the power section is pushed harder. The result is a bass tone filled with grind, harmonic richness, and vintage character that feels alive under the fingers.
From studio sessions and club stages to vintage-inspired touring rigs, the V-4B remains one of the most respected lower-wattage tube bass heads ever produced. It captures the spirit of classic Ampeg amplification in a more manageable and highly musical format.
