Introduction
Welcome to the world of Ampeg. Whether this is your first experience with Ampeg or you’re a
well-seasoned player who’s been around the globe a few times with our gear, you are taking
part in a piece of musical history. From here on out, nothing else will sound the same...
everything else will pale in comparison. You are one of the lucky few to take part in a new
chapter of an American legacy. Ampeg has come home! Each Heritage Series amplifier and
cabinet is designed and assembled right here in the U.S.A. We’ve heard from bass players
around the globe about their dedication and commitment to Ampeg and the Heritage Series
is made specifically for those players. Just our way of saying thank you and letting you know
that we heard you loud and clear.
Ampeg is the standard by which all others are measured. We’ve been pounding bass player’s
chests and audience’s booties for over 60 years now and we’re not going to slow down
anytime soon. From our early days of building “amplified pegs” for upright players to building
the world famous, stadium rattling SVT, Ampeg has been the choice for bassists, from touring
professionals to weekend warriors and everyone in between. We were the first ones on the
block listening and building gear for bass players. Heck, even our company’s founding fathers
were working, gigging players. When they weren’t tinkering around the shop on new ideas,
they were out in the clubs of New York earning their living. Not much has changed since then.
The average length of a hit song is 3 minutes and 40 seconds. We have been a part of most
of those hits for over 60 years. Now that you own a piece of Ampeg history, we want to be a
part of your next hit.
On a personal note, the team at Ampeg would sincerely like to thank you for your support
and dedication to our mission in bringing you some of the best amps and cabs the world has
known.
Best of luck in all of your musical endeavors!
Sincerely,
The dedicated team at Ampeg
