![]() ![]() The amps can be paired with any of eight Ampeg speaker cabinets and third-party IRs may also be loaded. The amp does have some wear and the back wooden panel is missing two screws but works perfectly and the tubes still have plenty of life left in them. For sale is a 1970’s Ampeg V4 100-Watt Head With Reverb. The instructions will be emailed to the address used to place the order. SVT ® Suite features three of the most renowned SVT amp heads: The Heritage TM 50th Anniversary SVT, the Heritage SVT-CL, and the SVT-4PRO. 1970’s Ampeg V4 100-Watt Head With Reverb. Cowboys Crosstalk presented by SWBC Financial services returns to The Star in Frisco with special guest Nate NewtonDallasCowboys CowboysNation NFLSubscri. Note, these boards are not compatible with the Distortion Model V4 or the new production V4B. This PCB set will include a full set of instructions and a shopping list with parts chosen specifically to allow for a successful filter cap replacement in a vintage Ampeg V4 or V4B. I figured that a beefy Ampeg would handle this so I discounted this.at first. He told me that he had accidentally set the impedance selector to 2 ohm when using his 4 ohm cab. Although I just had a quick look at the V4B reissue spec and it runs a few less valves than the original, not sure how that works. The board standoff mounts are laid out to coincide with the placement of the original filter capacitor rivets and the large chassis openings will be plugged with spec'd chassis plugs. I just got a frantic call from a regular customer that his 'new' (but really 1973) Ampeg V4 blew a fuse. Barely any boutique makers do Ampeg alikes because the ampeg pre is fairly fiddly to make compared to cloning and Fender/Marshall pre, or even and Orange/Matamp one. These boards are designed to allow the replacement of the multi-section caps with modern high quality, low ESR, discrete snap mount capacitors. Reliable direct replacement multi-section can capacitors for the Ampeg V4 are difficult to source and unreliable in their function. No direct technical support will be available from SNKpedals.*** Read through all instructions before proceeding to decide the best course of action. The plate voltage is high (around 530-540V) and the floating paraphase phase inverter gets very asymmetrical the farther into clipping you go, driving the grids of two power tubes with a much larger signal while the signal going to the other half of the push-pull actually gets smaller.***Note: This project is intended for experienced DIY hobbyist, or better yet, an experienced amplifier technician. ![]() If you bias it hot or even “normal” it will probably be too hard on the tubes and it may break. These amps are biased very cold from the factory, in the 45-50% plate dissipation range. They even floated the chassis to isolate it from cab vibration with rubber grommet mounting brackets. He teaches introduction to auditing and a doctoral seminar in auditing research, and his research interests focus on the conduct and outcomes of audits. Very surprising really that Ampeg’s thermal design for this amp is so terrible and pretty much all other aspects of the design are totally awesome. Nate Newton is the Carl DeSantis Associate Professor of Business Administration in the Department of Accounting at Florida State Universitys College of Business. To top it off, the power transformer and power tubes (all the hottest parts of the amp) are all shoved together in the corner of the chassis right next to each other. These amps are notoriously unreliable probably mainly because they’re from a different era where tubes were more robust, but also because with the tubes under the chassis they run hot when all the heat just rises up into the chassis. ![]()
