MGR/ctargia « Ampeg B2R »
Published on 05/03/10 at 15:00My review is based on my use of it with Amepg 410HLF Cabinet
Bought on eBay second hand a few years ago, toured a lot of small venues (under 100 people, bars/small clubs/etc) stud up to punishment of constantly being packed and unpacked. I paid about $300 for it but you can find them cheaper now second hand. I don't think they sell this model new anymore, they have the B2RE now.

Great starter amp for a poor musician, it has plenty of power to be herd along with other loud rock drums and distorted guitars. Even when playing outside this amp had enough juice. Tone is fantastic and very customizable. I never had any issues with this amp, never broke down, and it is very reliable.
May not have enough power for larger venues, however at a larger venue you will probably be either microphoned or using a DI-Box to the PA system, in which case that would not matter.
VERY Durable construction, can stand the abuse of touring and doesn't need to be confined to a studio, and it can easily be put in a rack.
If you have limited funds, and limited needs, this is a great amp! Buy one used, they hold up the test of time, its a great deal!
