Compact All-Tube Excellence: Ampeg PF-50T Portaflex
The Ampeg PF-50T is an all-tube bass amplifier head from the renowned Portaflex Series, bringing legendary Ampeg tube warmth and harmonic richness to an ultra-portable design. Delivering 50 Watts of pure tube power, the PF-50T is engineered for recording engineers, rehearsing musicians, and gigging bassists alike. Paired with an Ampeg PF-112HLF cabinet, it forms a lightweight, fully vintage-voiced all-tube bass stack.
All-Tube Circuitry and Deep Tone Shaping
The signal path of the PF-50T utilizes a premium vacuum tube complement, featuring two 12AX7 and one 12AU7 tubes in the preamp stage, paired with two 6L6 power tubes in the output section.
Key controls and tone-shaping features include:
-
Dual Inputs: Separate 0dB and -15dB pads ensure optimal signal levels for both passive and active instruments.
-
3-Band EQ: Intuitive Bass, Mid, and Treble frequency adjustments.
-
5-Position Mid-Tone Selector: Selects critical midrange center frequencies for precise tonal placement.
-
Ultra Hi / Ultra Lo Toggles: Instantly boost high-end shimmer or extend deep sub-bass response.
Silent Recording and Advanced Connectivity
A standout feature of the PF-50T is its ability to operate without a speaker load, making it a high-end all-tube preamp and direct box for silent studio recording and home practice.
Professional routing options include:
-
Balanced XLR Preamp Out: Equipped with Pre/Post EQ routing and Ground Lift switches.
-
Balanced XLR Transformer Out: Captures the full post-power-amp tube saturation directly from the output transformer.
-
User-Adjustable BIAS Controls: External rear-panel controls allow simple bias monitoring and calibration without requiring a technician.
