The Venture V3 brings the core features and professional workflow of the Venture series into a more compact and accessible 300-watt platform. Lightweight, highly portable, and built for modern bass players, the V3 delivers unmistakable Ampeg tone in a format ideal for rehearsals, recording sessions, smaller stages, and compact touring rigs.

At the center of the V3 is Ampeg’s Legacy Preamp all-analog front end, designed to retain the warmth, punch, and dynamic response that have defined Ampeg bass amplification for generations. Combined with a highly flexible 3-band EQ and sweepable mid-frequency control, the V3 provides precise tonal shaping while remaining musical and responsive under real playing conditions.

The integrated SGT™ overdrive circuit adds powerful tonal flexibility with dedicated SVT and B15 voicing options. From aggressive modern grind to warmer vintage-inspired tube textures, the Venture V3 delivers classic Ampeg character while maintaining excellent clarity and articulation.

Modern bass workflows are fully integrated into the platform. Features like the onboard variable compressor, effects loop with wet/dry mix control, XLR direct output, dual Neutrik speakON outputs, headphone output, and aux input make the Venture V3 equally comfortable on stage, in the studio, or during silent practice sessions.

Weighing only approximately 8.4 pounds, the Venture V3 provides premium modern Ampeg performance in a compact lightweight format designed for serious bass players who value portability without sacrificing professional functionality.
