It's hard to really get a grip on things just from playing it at NAMM, but Ashdown is supposed to send us a Drophead 200 combo for review, so at some point, I should have a whole lot more to pass on.  |

How BIG was it compared to an old Ampeg B15S? I know the 30 watt drop head has a smaller cabinet. And these descriptors you are using pertain to the 200 watt combo with it's own speaker?
Looking for something retro to go with my upcoming Fender Steve Bailey 6....
Thanks Tom, and hope you and the clan are well.
Cheers,
Cameron

Endorsing: Ampeg | | Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: Apopka, FL | | | as much as i like fliptops, i don't know that the idea of flipping a 200w tube head is very appealing to me when even flipping a 25w can be a bit of a pain.

"I Slap-AhH Da Bass MOn! | | Join Date: Jan 2011 Location: CowVille, Ohio | | | This is quite appealing,
but the only pricetag i could find for it said 2500.00 canadian mula,
Which is Unappealing to me-- hopefully they come a little closer to 2 g's - cuz otherwise i imagine most people will just save themselves a few hundred and go for a tried and true Peggy |
