Ashdown ABM-500 EVO II head - $525 shipped/$475 in NYC area

[velvetphil]

Hey guys,

Up for sale is my Ashdown ABM-500 EVO II head. I bought this new online in 2006 and it's just been killing it for me since then. I wouldn't sell it, except I'm playing mostly upright right now.

Love the tube drive on this unit; in my opinion it's the best of its kind (i.e. an amp-integrated overdrive). I replaced the stock tube with an Electro-Harmonix 12AX7 - the overdrive is a little more natural-sounding now to my ears.

Lots of wear and tear on this unit but everything works PERFECTLY; check the pictures out below. FULL DISCLOSURE: I replaced the worn-out leather handle with a brand new one direct from Ashdown, and the input gain potentiometer has also been replaced.

If you're in NYC, I can meet you and you can save some cash! Otherwise it's $500 shipped.

Thanks!

- Phil

Bump from a fellow ABM fan. Mine's an early Klystron 400 with an old Sylvania tube that really let the drive blossom.
