Ampeg bass amp with tube character
The Ampeg PortaFlex 50 is a 50 watt bass amp rooted in the legendary B-15 ‘flip-top’ amplifier. That heritage comes through in the all-tube design, a fully tube-driven circuit tied to the studio and stage sound this type of Ampeg is known for.
With 50 watts and a weight of 8.8 kg, this amplifier stays manageable in use. If you are looking for a tube bass amp suited to recording situations and live performance, the PF-50T is a strong option.
Flexible tone shaping and DI output
For shaping your sound, you get a 3-band EQ, a 5-position mid control and Ultra Hi and Ultra Lo boosts. That gives you focused control over the midrange and more ways to adjust your tone to your bass, playing style or mix.
The tube-driven, transformer-balanced DI with XLR connector makes the Ampeg PortaFlex 50 especially practical in studio and on stage. This bass amp also does not need to be connected to a speaker to operate, which is useful when you want to record direct or use a DI signal.
Response matched to your playing
One notable detail on the PF-50T is the user-adjustable Bias control. It lets you change how the power amp responds to your playing dynamics, so you can tailor the amp’s response more closely to the way you play.
