I don't know how many people have already seen this, so I thought I would do my duty as an Ashdown junkie and post the link to the pics and sparse on here.

Unfortunatly, the only link I have is a Facebook link, but it will hopefully get the ball rolling

Enjoy

...and....

I wonder if this is going to be one of those really expensive and "limited run of 50" deals? I was really looking at the new b-15 but I'm willing to bet I can buy a Reeves 225 and still not spend what ampeg is going to price that amp at.

Oh well, it's wait and see time.

I've just bought one of these, I'll collect it on Wed/Thursd. The UK distributor said: "Thanks again the amp is awesome and you have number two ever made its the only one in the country!
Thanks again,
Dan Gooday"

Here's a quote from Ashdown's Facebook page, " The RRP will be £1299.00 and are available to order via your local Ashdown dealer! We do have one at guitar nation if you wanted to come by?"

Doesn't look like a limited run. However, the Little Bastard is readily available in the UK and not in the US yet! So, I wouldn't be surprised if this unit is hard to come by.

I think I may have the only LB is the US, the demo model from last year's Winter NAMM. Here's a link if you want to read and see more.
