The July 2008 issue of
Bass Player features a cover story on tube bass amps called
Totally Tubular: Get Behind That Titanic Tube Tone. In it you'll see a ton of Ampeg bass gear--after all, it was nearly 40 years ago we brought out the
SVT (Super Valve Technology) bass amp and cabinets. Over the course of many pages they dissect an SB12, made way back in 1966, and show how our
SVTCL and
SVTVR heads are still the cock of the walk.
