Ampeg Expands Heritage Series Amplifiers With New B-15 Design


Anaheim, CA (January 24, 2013) – Ampeg today adds another model to its Heritage line of amplifiers — The Heritage B-15N. Like all Ampeg Heritage models, the Heritage B-15N is designed and assembled in the U.S.A. out of premium components with extreme attention to craftsmanship and finish. The Heritage B-15N delivers the sought-after B-15 performance in a new, circuit-board based, all-tube design with a beautiful flat black finish.

“No expense is spared when we build a new Heritage model. We are dedicated to breathing life into classic Ampeg designs in our U.S.-manufacturing facility,” remarks Ampeg Product Manager Zane Williams. “The B-15N is all-tube with the exact circuit paths and incredible tone of the iconic original. Plus, the new flat black look of the head is really sleek.”

The Heritage B-15N features distinct 1964 and 1966 channels, Ampeg’s flexible Baxandall EQ and selectable bias modes for ultimate tone control. The high-quality flip-top, double-baffle cabinet is covered in black diamond tolex and factors heavily into the amazing tone of the iconic original. Built to exacting standards, the Heritage B-15N meticulously recreates the world’s most recorded bass tone.

The Ampeg Heritage B-15N is available in a 2013 limited edition run of 250 units. Each Heritage B-15N features commemorative badges on both the head and cabinet.

I just want Ampeg to release a relatively affordable version of the TUBE B-15. None of the solid-state Portaflex series, but a tube flip-top amp at something us regular Joe's can reasonably afford.

Seems interesting that it "is designed and assembled in the U.S.A. out of premium components with extreme attention to craftsmanship and finish". That makes me interested in checking it out.
