OMG Calling all Ashdown Freaks

[CoolHat]

That's my thoughts exactly. It looks like a triumph of style over substance....

True,true. But then again, some of us put style over substance

Having three different pieces to carry isn´t the most practical solution gig-wise, no disagreement there. But no one is going to buy that mini rig primarily for gig use. The way I see it, it´s a practice amp that has enough power to be used in low volume gigs if necessary.

I´m certainly going to check that thing out, if it ever arrives here. If it´s reasonably priced (250 euros is a bit much perhaps) and sounds good I´d seriously consider buying it. I wouldn´t want to spoil my carefully designed living room by having some ugly Peavey combo standing in the corner It´s nice to have pretty things around you.

Which does get me back to that cute little Phil Jones Briefcase, although it also costs a pretty penny!

here is the response from my email from ashdown.

sorry, one other thing. We are also about to put Neodynium speakers into our new range of Ashdown Lab cabinets, which may be of interest.

Hi Steve

we have many idea's in the pipeline including footpedals and a lightweight programmeable amp head, which will be a little different to anything currently on the market, but these will take time. Hopefully we should be in a position to show them at Frankfurt show and be on sale by mid year. But that's all i can say for now. I will forward your points to our development department.

Regards
