  1. My first real bass was a Tokai Hardpuncher. I bought it when I was 15 and sold it a couple of years later when I upgraded to a Fender Precision Special with a graphite neck and EMGs. 
    30 years later the bass came back up for sale for about 4 times what I sold it for. I hummed and hawed for a little while but it was the wife who offered the most clarity by saying “you’ll always regret it if you don’t buy it“ and “you can always sell it if you don’t like it!”  Wise words. 
    I bought it and still have it 5 years later. It’s now hanging on my landing wall.

  2. Up for sale is my Ashdown Studio 210 combo.
    https://ashdownmusic.com/products/studio-210

    It’s super light weight and very loud. Especially when you combine it with an extension speaker!
    It’s in great condition. These are new almost  £600.

    As I’ve just bought an Ashdown little B valve head for a good price, I’m happy to let this go a bit cheaper. 
    Now selling combo for £250.

  3. Just managed to snag myself an Ashdown Little B*stard for a nice price on FB marketplace (always a worry compared to BC). To be fair, smooth sailing buying it. Just got home, Plugged it into my Supertwin. Wow! Great bass tone and surprisingly pretty loud too. Will test it out properly on Thursday but so far, so good!!

  4. 4 years ago they repaired and serviced my lovely old ABM 500 for free.
    Since then I’ve upgraded to an ABM 600, Studio 210 combo and just recently bought an Original preamp pedal too. 
    Now have my eye on a LB30 valve amp.  Ashdown fan for life!

  5. I have a couple of Fender FB620 gigbags. They are about £50 and excellent. The Mono M80 are probably the best gig bags but are around the £200+ mark.
    Like Lozz said save the hardcases for touring as the are uncomfortable to carry long distances and you’ll keeping banging into things when you do (or maybe that’s just me!) 😂

  6. Up for sale is what I lovingly call my super bitsa funky P bass. 
     

    It has a MIM Fender rosewood Jazz neck with blocks and bindings. The nut is 38mm. 
    Super light 3 tone sunburst Alder body (bought from Bass Doc on here). 
    The pick up is a genuine Fender ‘original’ series. 
    The gold bridge, tuners and hardware have been upgraded to gold Sandbergs. These are fantastic.  
    The wiring is from Kiogon.

    The strings I believe are TI roundwounds. 
    The scratch plate is anodised gold metal. 
    This is a top notch P bass. The only reason for selling is that I just bought the gold walshy bitsa P bass from here. Unfortunately it’s 1 in 1 out from now on. 
    Looking for a very reasonable £600.
