Show your Ashdown

[Fun Size Nick]

ABM 500, Mesa Powerhouse 610, J-Bass and my own bad self

So the question that seems to be begging is...does anyone actually have an Ashdown Classic amp, cab or combo, or have seen it in shops? I'm quite interested in the 210 combo, although looking at the specs of it just now I see that there's not a whole lot of weight difference between the classic and the ABM....hmmmm....

Ashdown Superfly into a Schroeder 12 Regular and, out of shot, a Trace Elliot 10" extension cab (the one that went with the BLX80's etc). The bass is a Cort Action V I like it

So I don't have a pic yet,but I have a Five Fifteen combo for about 5 years now,and it's great. Nice sound,and enough power for practicing with the band. But for bigger stages I intend to switch my Peavey tour 450 to an Ashdown ABM EVO II (the 500 watt version) paired with a little Ampeg cab,the SVT-12 HE. What do you think,would it be a good combination? Would it be a mixture of Ashdown,and Ampeg tone?

OK, here's mine. The 15" cab is a 400w Carlsbro Delta - nothing to do with the modern plastic PA cabs of the same name. It about 8" deeper than the "Deep" 2X10 cab, weighs in slightly a little more than Jupiter and rumbles the floor nicely!

Ashdown MAG-200-C115 (the old British model. no longer made, they went to a 300w combo)

Yeah, I got an ABM EVO 500 and a MAG410 and was planning to get the ABM210 for a big of 'extra'-although it sounds great to me ears already...

Hehe cheers mate, nice to know I've got your approval It's a nice combination, isn't it?

Thought I'd get in on the action and show my gear.The 410 cab is very rare in that it is covered in white and has no serial number on the back plate. This is because it was built for The Manic Street Preachers for a video shoot (A Design For Life?) where they had an all white stage, white suits white guitars etc. I bought an ABM500 as an ex demo, missing a knob and with the Mute LED not working. I called Ashdown regarding a fix, and they sent me a brand new amp in exchange! The Superfly inflicted damage to Mr Visa because it was sooo cheap on closeout-I just need a couple of 4 ohm cabs to get the best from it now!

Superfly

Superfly with (2) Yamaha BBT110s and Workingman 10 with Avatar Neo. Line out from the Superfly to the effects return on the Workingman

Purchased this head on a whim from a talkbass member for $175.00. I had sold my LMII and GS112's and had the yamaha cabs. Pleasantly surprised on the sounds that I get out of this rig and really happy with the acquisition. Have my spare laptop plugged into it and this gives the amp a whole extra dimension. Looking for a MIDI pedal next

[wtf_is_a_bass]
