Ampeg bass amp with tube tone at lower volume
If you want a bass amp that delivers the familiar Ampeg all-tube sound without needing high power, the Ampeg PortaFlex 20 is a strong option. This 20 watt amp head is the lower wattage version of the PF-50T and gives you the same legendary all-tube tone, but in a format that works better when you want to play at lower volume.
The all-tube design gives this bass amp the character many players look for in Ampeg. That makes it a good match for bassists who want a tube amplifier for practice, recording or other situations where 20 watts makes more sense than a heavier model.
DI output and flexible control
The PF-20T has a versatile EQ section, so you can shape the sound with precision. It also includes a tube-driven, transformer-balanced DI circuit with XLR connection, useful when you want to send the signal directly.
The bias control is user-adjustable as well. The tubes are easy to access, and the amplifier does not need to be connected to a speaker to operate, which is especially practical in studio or recording setups.
Compact Ampeg PortaFlex 20
At 6.9 kg, the Ampeg PortaFlex 20 stays manageable for use and transport. At Magna Music, you can also get personal advice from musicians who know what bass players pay attention to in real use.
