Darryl Jones' Amplifiers
“The B-15 has always been a part of the studio experience for me. They were ever-present in all the studios I worked at in Chicago, New York, and L.A. No matter what kind of music you were recording, from R&B to jazz to rock, you could always find a suitable sound through it. In recent years, even with all of the other choices available, the B-15 has become more coveted, and now it’s exciting to see the release of the Heritage B-15. I hope I’ll be doing sessions for many years to come on both vintage and new models. Thanks, Jess Oliver and Ampeg, for getting it right from the jump.”

Darryl runs a 2 channel Shure wireless to Rocktron Patchmate switcher to a Radial JD7 Injector, which splits the signal to an early 70’s Ampeg SVT head through a pair of Ampeg SVT 810 Classic cabinets, and also to a pair of Ashly BP41 preamps (one for J bass, one for P bass) to the Meyer crossovers, to 3 Crown amps then to the pair of Meyer tri-amped speaker cabinets. Each of the two Meyer speakers consist of 2×15, 1×12, and a horn.
