Ampeg B-18N Portaflex Fliptop

1964 Ampeg B18N - The big brother to the legendary B-15N, delivering 50 watts of vintage tube bass tone through the same beloved B15 preamp circuit. This rare Portaflex head represents Ampeg's push for more power while maintaining that warm, pillowy low-end and musical midrange compression that defined the era's bass sound. Amp head captured at three gain stages from clean to driven saturation using a Suhr Reactive Load Box. Note: This is an amp-only capture - pair with your favorite bass cab IR for the full experience. Works beautifully with vintage 15" or 18" speaker IRs to recreate that authentic tone.
