Ashdown Superfly and Basson B115

For the 1st time I hooked these up together and was stunned! They sound really clean, deep and sweet, just not loud. However they look ridiculous.

If it sounds good it is good but yeah...it does kinda look like an alarm clock or a cb radio sitting on the cab. I guess that's the new cool now with all the shuttle/markbass type mini amps. Kinda like skinny pants and big shoes.

Glad you're lovin' that Basson B115. I've been enjoying a pair of Basson B410B lately, only one at a time so far. Can't wait to "need" both though. I'll do my best to keep from being too loud!

Enjoy!!

You know, I should rig up a 'coffee maker' to set on top of the cab,next to the SF,for stage. Fake of course.( or maybe not)

Here is my small rig. Looks funny, but that B210b is fantastic.
Really heavy, but kicks a$$. If I were a small man, that cab would have to go......its 90lbs, a real pig.

At least the Superfly matches colors. But yeah, I'm surprised manufacturers don't get more stylish with these micro amps. Genz Benz and Ampeg are about it as far as I'm concerned. The rest look like they're installed in project boxes. I guess they kind of are

Hey, I like my gear to have a look. What can I tell ya? I'm superficial. I used to not be superficial, then I looked at this hideonious rig I had assembled once and said, "I gotta do something about that."

I kinda like the idea of a huge cab and the mini head. Kinda fit with the cheap bass/expensive strap joke.
