    Wanted Ampeg Heritage B-15

    I'm hoping for first run but would consider second run. Totally serious buyer, many-year forum member, decades-long bass player, and can afford it. Would absolutely pay $5000 for mint, potentially more based on photos. The ad is probably valid until 2023 or later, given how long I've wanted...

    Heritage B-15 versions?

    I'm sure threads exist that answer my questions but I'm not finding them! I think they made 50 in 2012 and 250 in 2013? I think the 2012's are chrome finish and 2013's are black? I think the 2012 were hand-soldered discrete point to point in the US, and the 2013s... were... something else...
