OFFICIAL ASHDOWN CLUB

[SickAura]

Seems like the Ashdown Club has been a little too quiet lately - can I join?

Posted a mini-review here:

Here's my main rig:
An ABM500 head into an ABM610 cab. Great sound - punchy, articulate and all the volume I'll ever need.

Klystron 500 + ABM 800; enough to join the club?

Pictured is my main bass rig - ABM 500 EVO, Mini 48 and Mini15 cabs. I also have an EB 130-15 practise amp (well that's what I use it for) and an Ashdown Fallen Angel 60 2x12 combo!

I'm an Ashdown ABM500 Evo II owner as of yesterday. Does that count for membership?

Hows that rig sounding? Im currently running a GK 700RB-II into that cab, not bad but really considering the ABM500

How do you like the Ashdown MiBass 500? I've been hunting for a used one, but they are REALLY hard to find...

I've got a Rootmaster 420 being shipped to me (hopefully here today, but most likely Monday). I'll post pics when it arrives!

Here's my ABM EVO III 500 with my new Epifani P.S. 112's

My Ashdown CTM15 arrived this morning. I am completely digging the fat tube tone. I don't run the pre-amp tubes just the power tubes. Great fat sound!

Adding the master gain, thins out the sound in my opinion, but does give some wicked distortion. Pictures later on after re-cable the "Wall of Sound"

I dig it. Very clean and bright. Good lows too. Only jammed with it a few times. Played one show so far. For me personally, I don't think I'll ever find anything to replace the ABM 500 but it comes close. I haven't tried it with a band with my 410s. Curious how it will sound. I hunted for a while and found one on Reverb. Made them an offer and they accepted. There's one on there right now I think, but it's only a local pick up, somewhere in Canada. I got a gig bag for it from Interstate Music for $40 just so you know in case you track one down.

Here's my ABM EVO IV 500 with my new Epifani P.S. 112'sView attachment 620718

Are you sure this is an EVO IV?
It has "only" 7 bands of EQ, not 9....

My bad it is an Evo iii.
F.Y.I. There no EVO IV 500''s
They are 600's and 1200's

The Ashdown CMT-15 is connected to the Bergantino CN210.

I started with a MAG 600 (non evo) some seven years ago, and after a hiatus from live playing assembled my new rig. Ashdown ABM900 and 2 4x10's. Love the 'Ashdown' sound, and the MAG still serves practice duty and rides to the gigs as a backup.

JJ500 and ABM610. Currently loving this rig!!

 

[mr.mow]

550 Spyder into an ABM610, all bought at bargain basement prices.. No one wants Ashdown gear here, entire rig as new for about $800US.

Sounds mighty, has a lovely fat vintage tone.

I bought a secondhand Ashdown ABM Evo II head yesterday. All I can say is wow. I love my previous amp but this thing sounds amazing. I promise I'll post some pics soon to get a number.
