Members smrz Posted May 14, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 heh....yeah. it's very possible that I'll unload the 4x12 since I already have a 2x12 cab I really like and not much space in my house or my car. Shame though to break up the matched set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members companyman Posted May 14, 2009 Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 they sound freakin' great, just a bit unmanageable in the volume dept. from my experience. I have an opportunity to get a v-22 2x12 combo for $250...it weighs like 100 llbs and sooooooooo loud...I can't decide if I need it, my Orange is plenty loud.

Members companyman Posted May 14, 2009 Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 yeah...I'm having visions of a stereo rig with the V-22 for cleans and the Orange for dirt split with a EHX Polychorus...this would be unstoppable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members companyman Posted May 14, 2009 Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 Hey SMRZ , I have been told that these have issues with overheating when pushing them for any length of time, I've seen people do mods to them installing fans to cool the tube area...just a heads up.

Members ArrMatey Posted May 14, 2009 Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 anyone that doesn't pick up an old ampeg at a great deal when they can is signing a one way ticket to tone hell. Congrats on the first buyer, this is a great amp!And for the second one, Pick this ampeg already!!! It's pure tonal bliss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Harry_Manback1 Posted May 14, 2009 Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 Great deal! I stumbled upon a VT-22 for $250 in a pawn shop last year. Sold it like a dip{censored} cuz it was too loud. That's a combo converted to head, right?V4 = headVT22 = combo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a combo converted to head, right? V4 = head VT22 = combo Not sure...kinda looks original, but that could have been aftermarket anyway. Looks like I'm not the only one though. Don't really care, either way, it's basically a V-4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jlantsberger Posted May 14, 2009 Members Share Posted May 14, 2009 AWESOME. This place is turning into an Ampeg forum, I dig it. My main amp's a VT-22 combo, great amp. It is odd that you found a VT-22 head. Enjoy that thing, they're HUGE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
