Ampeg Venture V12 1200W Bass Amp Head Ampeg

Ampeg Venture® Series amplifiers and cabinets deliver the modern style and features sought by contemporary bassists—continuing a tradition of innovation that stretches back to the dawn of the electric bass. Powerful yet portable and lightweight yet roadworthy, the series comprises the V3, V7, and V12 heads and the VB-112, VB-115, VB-210, VB-212, and VB-410 cabs.

With their easy-to-use and intuitive controls, Venture Series amplifiers offer an extensive array of tone-shaping tools that include 3-band EQ with sweepable Mids, Ultra Hi and 3-way Ultra Lo switches, and a Super Grit Technology™ (SGT™) Overdrive circuit with SVT® and B15 voicings. The V7 and V12 amplifiers also include a highly musical variable compressor. An effects loop, an XLR direct output, an Aux input, and a Phones output enhance connectivity. All circuitry is analog except for the solid-state Class D amplifiers. Add an optional AFS2 footswitch for remote control of the SGT overdrive and Mute, and an optional heavy-duty padded Venture carrying bag.

Venture Series cabinets are available in the most popular configurations, enabling bassists to choose the right cab—or combination of cabs—for any gig. These stylish cabinets are ruggedly constructed and covered in carbon fiber-style Tolex, so they’ll hold up gig after gig, while at the same being some of the lightest bass enclosures currently available. They are loaded with lightweight custom-voiced Lavoce® neodymium woofers and high-frequency drivers. Protect your Venture cab with an optional heavy-duty padded cover.

Venture Series amps and cabs were designed to serve gigging bassists of all types playing all styles—anywhere they may go.
