Anyone know this amp? (Ashdown content)

Hey folks

I´ve been offered to trade min SVT 3-Pro for this amp, and i am very tempted. However i´m having a real hard time finding any info on it.

The link is for a danish "Ebay" equivalent.

Any help will be much appreciated.

That looks like an ABM 900; I don't think Ashdown made a "800"

You need more pix of the front, methinks; There were few versions of this amp, and some were better than others.

I will say this: I have a first generation ABM500 and *love* it. But I think you could sell your Ampeg for more money than this head is worth (do an ebay search on both to compare what they are going for)

Trading is rarely a good deal.

Thanks for the reply. I also thought that i was a "900", but on the second picture i´m pretty sure it reads 800 next to the VU-meter. I´ve E´d the vender but he´s quite slow with his responces.

Maybe it is a bad deal. I might be blinded by the thrill of getting new gear.

Could you plz elaborate on the different versions, pros and cons etc.?
I can´t really seem to find that much info.

Thanks again...
