Randy	B15R I just picked up an Ampeg B-15R for a song. Love it. It sat in this store for a couple of years. No one in Portland seemed to be going for the "vintage styling" of this amp. Anyway, the price kept going down, and down, and down. I ended up trading an amp that I didn't want for the B15 and a fulltone fulldrive. It is 100 watts with a half-power switch. It will take EL34's and 6l6's. It has a fully adjustable line-out. Best of all, it looks cool and sounds great. I've onle had it for a couple of months now, but so far, there have been no problems. It has been great for recording, and great live. Best of all, with the head tucked inside the cabinet, it is super easy to transport.
