Ampeg’s new Venture series of bass amplifier heads and speaker cabinets is comprised of the V3, V7 and V12 heads and the VB-112, VB-115, VB-210, VB-212 and VB-410 cabs. With intuitive controls, Venture series amplifiers offer an extensive array of tone-shaping tools that include three-band EQ with sweepable mids, ultra hi and three-way ultra lo switches, as well as the brand’s Super Grit Technology (SGT) Overdrive circuit with SVT and B15 voicings. The V7 and V12 amplifiers also include a 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. Players can add an optional AFS2 footswitch for remote control of the SGT overdrive and mute, and an optional heavy-duty padded Venture carrying bag.
