Ampeg Micro-CL Stack

Ampeg is a legendary brand in the world of bass amplification, originally founded in the United States in the 1940s. The brand is best known for its iconic SVT series which became a standard for rock stages worldwide. While the brand carries a deep American heritage, most of its modern consumer and entry-level gear, like the Micro-CL Stack, is manufactured in China to balance performance with affordability.

Over the decades, the ownership of Ampeg has changed hands several times. After being owned by companies like Magnavox and St. Louis Music, it was acquired by LOUD Audio. In 2018, the brand was purchased by Yamaha Guitar Group, a subsidiary of the Japanese multinational Yamaha Corporation. Today, Ampeg continues to operate as a premier bass amp brand under the global Yamaha umbrella, maintaining its classic aesthetic and tone while benefiting from Japanese engineering oversight and global distribution networks.
