Designed to deliver the modern style and features sought by contemporary bassists, the ultraportable Ampeg Venture V3 is the smallest and lightest of the three heads in the Venture Series and easily fits into a gig bag, a laptop bag or the optional Venture carrying bag (sold separately), making it an ideal head for the traveling bassist.
The Venture V3 delivers 300W via its Class-D power section—more than enough power to drive any of the Venture Series speaker cabinets or practically any other cab bassists may encounter on their travels. Featuring easy-to-use and intuitive controls, the Venture V3 offers an extensive array of tone-shaping tools, including a legacy preamp, 3-band EQ with sweepable Mids, Ultra Hi and 3-way Ultra Lo switches, and a Super Grit Technology (SGT) Overdrive circuit with SVT and B15 voicings. An effects loop, an XLR direct output, an AUX input and a Phones output enhance connectivity, as does the Neutrik speakON 1/4″ combo output. All circuitry is analog except for the solid-state Class-D amplifier.
Add an optional AFS2 footswitch (sold separately) for remote control of the SGT overdrive and other functions and an optional heavy-duty padded Venture carrying bag (also sold separately) to protect your Venture V3.
