The Ampeg B-100 R is a bass combo amplifier great for use in the studio or on the stage. My extend of using the B-100 R has just been in the studio, as I'm an engineer and don't do live sound at all. I recently did a session where the bass player was using this amplifier and we were recording it in tandem with a direct inject signal as well. The amp, as the name suggests, outputs 100 watts of power and also has a 15" speaker. The amp has a slew of 1/4" connections, including for inputs at zero and -15 db, as well as for headphones and a direct line out.
UTILIZATION
Using the Ampeg B-100 R is overall quite simple. It would be a great amp to learn on since it's so simple but also nice for more experienced users just looking for the necessary controls. The parameters at play here include knobs for gain, a four band EQ with bass, low mid, high mid, and treble controls, and a master volume knob. A manual shouldn't be needed since everything is more or less self explanatory.
SOUNDS
The Ampeg B-100 R has a really full overall sound that's perfect for recording. It's not too loud in general but can get up there in volume for live shows if necessary. We kept it at a moderate volume for recording and the sound was great. I like having the four band EQ here and it's nice that it's not convoluted but still has enough parameters to work with. Nothing more to say than this is just a really great sounding bass amp.
OVERALL OPINION
The Ampeg B-100 R is the perfect bass combo amp for the experienced bass player looking for something that sounds great but isn't too big to carry around. I'd probably recommend this to any bass player looking for a great combo amp as it's impossible to go wrong with this. The price is reasonable for what you're getting considering that it's an Ampeg. Highly, highly recommended for any bass player looking for a combo amp.
