    Yes I had one. It was lovely. Great build quality and sound. In no way Ampeg like, bit nice valve sound. Manageable, but it's that nice youd want a case etc which makes it really heavy. You can pick them up dirt cheap if you're lucky.

    Begrudgingly selling due to work or lack of it during this pandemic. Both are pretty much as new condition. One is literally a month old. Both have the 4ohm or 12 ohm outer switch, meaning you can run a range of ohmage options. Ie 1 cab at 4ohm if using alone. 2 cabs at 12 ohm for a combined total of 6 ohm, or 2 cabs at 4 ohm for amps that go to 2 ohm. Super strong grilles on these. Very lightweight. Around 14kg. Extremely loud. Without losing any definition. Simply brilliant sound. Thes also come with expensive hotcovers in leather look pvc. Very well padded and custom made full wrap full velcro cover. So no side is left unprotected at all. So, in all a stunning lightweight, expandable rig, that can even be extended more. So you can run 3 of these cabs at 12 ohm, at a 4ohm total. I'll offer both together first. If I can sell both separately then I would be up for that. Currently these are £629. The covers around £60. Approx £700 in total. So big savings to be made. PS obviously the amps etc are not for sale. Just the 2 cabs and 2 covers.

    From what I've heard (whether it's currently true or not is a different matter) only venues that are SPECIFIC live music venues, that open only for live music and no other reason are allowed bands indoors. Even then they have to get special dispensation from the council to open and put events on. All events must be ticketed only and seated only and finish within set timescales.

    I think the more you buy and sell, the less bothered you get. It was a great thing to sell lots in the past - even if for necessity. I just remember that band with that bass etc and move on. Theres nothing i had that I really wished I had back. Perhaps my 1990s usa precision, but the new player I have is just as good.

    2 things that should be on the ashdown abm series - tuner and headphone socket.

    Haha, I used to call them class A/B but got pulled up for that! But, yes, that type of amp - class a/b, transistor, solid state etc. Non all valve or class d

    Ok so recently weve had big threads on the best class d heads people have used and the best all valve heads people have used. So, let's complete it with the best solid state heads people have used (in their opinion) and why. Pre valves etc accepted.

    Yep, I've just received mine. Superb amp. A lot lighter than youd think too.

    I think you can if you order a custom shop one.

    Cheers, the output from the g90 is currently set at 0db.

    Hi all, an odd question here. I have a line 6 G90 rack wireless system and it's fantastic. I've used it with an ashdown evo iv and both work together well. Now....I've sold the ashdown and bought the same amp but in rackmount version. I've racked everything up, and theres a noticeable white noise at high volume. (not playing the bass, just on its own). This becomes notably worse when boosting the mids. I've taken everything out of the rack and tested. Same problem. The ashdown works phenomenoly well in the rack when using a cable from bass to the amp (not using the g90) - no noise at all. I'm plugging from the unbalanced jack out of the g90 into the input on the ashdown. Has anyone any ideas of how to eliminate this noise? Im a bit worried it will pass into the DI signal? Any help appreciated.

    The evo iv is a fantastic head. Really fantastic. It is a different beast to the 1,2 and 3, but has similar traits. Any sound is possible once you get used to it. From funk, to r n b, to rock. I even had mine a bit Ampeg like tonight. Very punchy. Much more so than the others. Easy carry, but good weight. Volume and oomph for days. As with all ashdowns the pre shape is the key. Personally for me pre shape OFF (ironically by pushing IN) works great in the mix. To be honest it's a real steal at its usual rrp. If you can get it cheaper, even better.

    I built a few bitsas years ago. I put a pair of Seymour Duncan quarter pounders in, and it just sounded like a mess. Nothing to do with the pick ups, but I hadn't taken any consideration into the pots etc. I'd seriously consider matching them the best you can to the pick ups you choose. It wasnt just a case of 'pick any and itll be great' unfortunately for me.

    On hold until next wed.

    Great to hear her in the first vid saying she loved hearing the bass when hed turned up, and that's where she gets her pitch from.

    I'm sure one of the two speakers in the two10 is very mid biased, with the other more bass centred. So, the only difference I could possibly envisage is a slightly more mid, or more bass sound depending on which of the speakers you have at the top of the stack. In reality though, I doubt anyone could tell.

    Brilliant! Glad you are enjoying it!

    Yeh, Dave Green the amps designer at Ashdown specifically told me only use the valves supplied.

    Reduced to £425.

    I saw one of these in pmt last week briefly. First impressions were that it was bigger and thicker than I'd expected.
