    [quote name='Linus27' post='176278' date='Apr 14 2008, 02:09 PM']Hi, I am still looking for my amp and cabs to buy and I have pretty much dialled it down to two makes. Either the Ashdown MAG range or the Hartke VX range. I have read a lot about the Ashdown having a certain sound. Some like it and some don't. I previously owned a very good XL series Hartke setup which sounded nice but the alluminium speakers I found gave a thin sound which was not to my liking. Can someone tell me what sort of sound to expect from the following, Ashdown MAG 300 head Ashdown MAG 210T Deep Cabinet Ashdown MAG 115 Deep Cabinet and this, Hartke HA3500 Hartke VX2x10 Hartke VX1x15 I have no idea what sort of sound the Ashdown Mag will give me but I get the impression it might be fatter but less bright over the Hartke. I don't want a wooly undefined sound but I don't want a thin twangy funky sound like my old Hartke rig. Thanks for any help.[/quote] I think you should buy my Ashdown Mag 2x10 300T Combo and Ashdown Mag 1x15 Deep Cab (complete with covers) currently for sale on this very forum but then, it has to be said, I am biased. Only £300 though and a bargain at that.

    [quote name='jono b' post='176535' date='Apr 14 2008, 06:32 PM']You may be better to split too. A lot of people don't which puts me off for sure, some folk are just looking for an amp and others are just looking for a cab. It might be an idea to post it too. It's a bit of hassle for you trying to box it and such, but you could always get the potential buyer to organise pickup and delivery. I don't think many would be pissed if you stuck an extra fiver or tenner on top for your hassle. Just throwing it out there, but it may open up your potential market. There were a couple of people who wouldn't post their cabs when I was looking to buy, which was a real kick in the sh*tt*r.[/quote] Cheers for that. I shall edit my offer accordingly, although I am sticking to "collection only" which would obviously include the buyer organising pickup and delivery by a third party after payment via PayPal had been cleared. [b]minty fresh death:[/b] Understood and appreciated.

    Mmmm. At this rate, this excellent bass rig is going to be the world's most electronically advanced set of bedside tables. Rather that than see it go to eBay for less than my reasonable asking price I think.!! I have to confess that I'm still utterly gobsmacked that I've had little or no response. Any of you guys care to hazard a guess why? Can I blame this (as well as everything else) on the Smoking Ban?

    Hello..................................................... Is there anybody out there? To coin a phrase.
  6. bassicinstinct
    Pre-"weekend busy gigging" type bump.
  7. bassicinstinct
    By popular request, I have "whipped out my Brownie" (ooohhh errr ) and this is the result. Can you see why I'm a bassist and not a photographer? Anyway, come on boys and girls - this bargain has got to go.

    [quote name='coasterbass' post='173991' date='Apr 10 2008, 03:55 PM']any chance of any photos? Its a blinding deal, and some evidence of its blindingness(!?!) might help others see the light[/quote] Fair point. I shall see what I can do - although as there are no marks or scrapes or anything, as far as I can see, library pics would be just about as accurate Watch this space.

    I'm truly amazed that this has attracted no interest. I'd hate to see it hit evilBay. Any takers? Please PM me if interested.

    Another pinkster here.

    [quote name='sk8' post='171550' date='Apr 7 2008, 04:06 PM']i've got one and it does exactly what it says on the tin[/quote] +1.

    [b]MetricMike:[/b][u][/u] Noted. I hope, in the nicest possible way, that I'll not be splitting, but I will bear it in mind. Why don't you "threaten" your friends to pay up for their tickets [b]NOW[/b]!!!

    Monday morning bump from the freezing East Midlands.
  16. bassicinstinct
    Sunday morning pre-fry up bump for an edit and price adjustment. This is priced to go boys!!
  17. bassicinstinct
    All in excellent order throughout. I have been using this rig for the last few years for all rehearsals/gigs/recording and have had no issues whatsoever. Priced to include Ashdown branded fitted covers, mains lead and jack to speakon lead for the extension cab. Collection only please. Too heavy to post I think. I am based 3 miles from J25 of the M1 (Nottingham) May be able to meet half or part way depending on distance if my fuel is paid for. Payment by PayPal or by hard cash on collection/handover. This needs to go to fund an extreme GAS attack which has now been resolved. [b]£295 for the pair. No offers.[/b] Please feel free to PM me.
  18. bassicinstinct
    So can I. I have used Ashdown exclusively since 1999 for gigs/rehearsals/recording an average of 3 - 4 times per week and have never had any issue of any sort with the ranges I have used (ABM, MAG and, currently, Superfly).

    [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='168145' date='Apr 2 2008, 08:37 AM'] They were a bit disapointing I thought mainly because Peter Perret seemed completely unable to sing or perform with any consistency, looking particularly wasted in the process! There's a bit about how his 'addictions' have derailed his career in the Only Ones Wiki: [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Only_Ones"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Only_Ones[/url] Shame because they were a great band... AFAIK, this new time slot for Later is how it's going it be from now on and that's a real loss because it's only a half hour show![/quote] No. The Tuesday night 30 minute show is [b]IN ADDITION [/b]to the Friday night full length one. Isn't it?

    [quote name='Jobiebass' post='163577' date='Mar 26 2008, 09:28 AM']Im after 2 sets myself, I want to upgrade my Jazz and ive got a bass im working on which I want to fit them to. where did you find them from the US??? I could get them off ebay in the UK for £90 inc postage for 2 and I thought it wasnt a bad deal, am I being ripped off?[/quote] At £90 for 2 including UK postage, you are indeed being ripped off [b]BIG TIME[/b]!!! I am talking about bridge [b]SADDLES[/b] though, not complete bridges. I got mine from here: [url="http://www.guitarpartsresource.com/bass_saddles.htm"]http://www.guitarpartsresource.com/bass_saddles.htm[/url] $13.99 each plus P&P which equates to just under £12.50 inclusive. A bargain I think. Good luck. Regards Neil
