In today's economy it's critical to get the most you can for your spending dollar. So there's no sane reason to over pay for Bass Tube Amp when there are lots of them for sale on eBay. Plus, eBay is one of the largest and most trustworthy online shopping sites in the modern world. This site is sanctioned by eBay to help you find the Bass Tube Amp you are shopping for and show them to you. If you don't see the Bass Tube Amp you are hunting for below. Use the search function on the right to find the variety you want.
When do you change your tubes in your bass amp?
I have an ampeg bass amp and I need to know when you should change the tubes. I have had it about 2 years and play on it every day for two hours at a time.
My amp doesn't seem to be as loud as it use to be.
Do they need changed? Is it the tubes or what else could be the problem.
Also, the amp seems to "fart" when the bass is turned up.
If it's not as loud as it used to be, that's one indication the tubes (or 1 tube) need to be replaced. Do you know how old they are (you mentioned you've had it for about 2 years, but I'm not sure if you bought it new or used)? If your not sure, it may be a good idea to replace all of the tubes so you know what you're dealing with. I'd feel better knowing they were all new.
If you're familiar with "retubing" an amp, check the websites below. You can save some money by ordering online and doing it yourself. If it's something you don't want to attempt, find the nearest authorized ampeg repair center (listed on the ampeg website) and have them do it.
