    Better Pics and price drop. Anyone have experience shipping a rack? I read the sticky about the tube head. Does that still apply to this?

    I'm fairly new, but Ashdown amps don't seem to get much love on these forums. If you are looking at this, then you are probably familiar with the Ashdown ABM series. If not:

    Over the past 10 years, Ashdown ABM bass amps have put the power behind a diverse list of top players including U2's Adam Clayton, the Foo Fighters' Nate Mendel and Sir Paul McCartney. Ensuring that they continue to set the standards for tone, versatility and performance, all Ashdown ABMs have now been upgraded to EVO III status in a move that sees the addition of an important new feature.

    Ashdown gets plenty love from most folks that have used anything above the mag line. The ABM line slays! I'm a true believer! Tons of high end gear has come and gone, but my Ashdown stays.

    I agree! I love Ashdown stuff from my MAG 300 to this ABM. I may be replacing this setup with an Ashdown MiBass 550. Just don't have the space in the house or the back muscles for this rack anymore!

    I've received a few PM's with some questions, so I'll post them here:

    Question: Does the amp say, "Manufactured in England" on the back?

    Answer: Yes, it says, "Manufactured in England" on the back of the amp.

    HOWEVER, on the original box it also says:
    *********
    Designed and Engineered in England
    Made in P.R.C.
    *********

    So it is made in China. Kind of honest and misleading at the same time!

    I really wasn't sure how to price this, but I'll take a cue from the other ABM 500 thread and lower the price quite a bit.

    $650 pickup/meet-up price (San Antonio, TX area). If I ship, buyer pays actual insured shipping costs.

    Still available. At this point, I'd be willing to split everything up. Hit me up with reasonable offers if you like.

    Friendly bump because you've got a Spacetone Music sticker, and because I wish I had the cash!
