Power thats all Ampeg

The Venture Series was built for modern-day bassists requiring a portable yet powerful amp head. Under the hood, the V12 sports all-analog circuitry, excepting, of course, the solid-state Class D amplifier. The Venture V12s 1,200 watts of power give it plenty of juice to drive every speaker cabinet in the Venture Series, in addition to nearly every speaker youll come in contact with on the road.

Legendary tone built right in

The Venture V12 Bass Head offers you the power of its footswitchable SGT (Super Grit Technology) Overdrive circuit for satisfying crunch and powerful drive. Within this circuit, you can tap into the tonal excellence of two of Ampegs coveted amplifiers: the SVT and the B15. If youre unfamiliar with the SVTs signature roar and harmonic richness, Ampeg invites you to flick the switch and see what the fuss is about. Similarly, the B15 is ready to take you back to vintage sound with tonal qualities all its own. After youve picked your poison, you can dial in the amount of grit with a stacked knob configuration. The Venture V12 also provides bassists with a 3-band EQ that includes sweepable Mids, Ultra Hi, and 3-way Ultra Lo. These tonal-sculpting features are topped off by a highly musical variable compressor.

Comprehensive connections

Playing the bass is a formidable challenge unto itself, but its easier to succeed when Ampeg sets you up with all the requirements needed. The Venture V12 offers an XLR-DI, headphone output, and FX Loop for work on the stage or in the studio. Not to mention, the FX Loop is enhanced with a mix knob to blend wet and dry signals. With all the requisite controls at your fingertips, youll find more time for churning out killer grooves and sculpting your dream tone.

Compact size perfect for on-the-go bassists

The Venture V12 is the largest in the Venture Series, but thanks to a compact design, it can easily fit in a gig bag. This makes it the perfect amp head for traveling bassists! You can also grab an optional Venture carrying bag to transport your V12 in ultimate style and protection.
