I have used fedex ground with out any problems, I think there limit is 170 pounds. If you dont have the original box, just find a box store in your area and purchase some bubble wrap and two heavy duty boxes. Wrap the amp in a few layers of bubble wrap and place it in the first box, wrap that box in bubble wrap and place it in the second box.I have used this method many times without any problems at all.

I don't like to use UPS in general, but I believe they offer a packing service, which does a good job of packing and they may actually pay insurance claims if you use their packing service. I am not recommending UPS and I don't know if they would pack your amp but they are worth checking out.
