they have had this deal on for several months now,for that price its got to be a good deal with a years warranty as well.

never tried the evo 111,but i first had a evo11 made in the prc,had a slight issue with it so changed it for a uk made one.imo the uk made one has more balls than the prc one,although ashdown said they would be exactly the same.i would not swap mine for a evo111 simply because i love the sound of mine and its a uk model!

if you liked the trace sound then go back to it.Always lots of s/h trace gear for sale on here or evil bay!Only experience with ampeg ive had is the 4x10he cab.didnt like the sound of it,thought it was quiet and a bit dull.just my opinion.

if youre lookin at ashdown cabs then it has to be the classic neo 2x10.if the LM 11 is as good as people say they are then this cab will complement it well.cab weighs 26kg so not bad for its size.Note the cab is 335mm deep not 420mm as stated on their website.

i used to have a mia fender jazz and when squier brought out the classic vibe range i tried both the 50's and 60's p-bass.i was very surprised how good they were,so surprised i bought the 60's pbass and used it for gigs instead of the fender which ive now sold.i have also tried the squier vm pbass and imo was better than a mim fender precision.Idont care whats on the headstock if it plays and sounds as good who cares.i also gig with a vintage p-bass,another good sounding bass.

theres still a good deal on a mag 600w amp online.£230 i think.good price for 600w imo.

bit unusual they did not reply again as i have had nothing but very good service from ashdown.think i have heard about these cabs before being unreliable.looking at it from ashdowns point of view,how many customers do they get who try and pull a fast one?Not that you are but they must get them.

soundslive have the new ashdown range for pre-order on their website,not bad prices either!

little giant 1000w,they have come down in price online.i can recommend ashdowns classic 2x10 neo cab,light ,clear and loud,would sound good with the lg.Or wait till febuary and get the LB30 valve head from ashdown who assure me that it will be loud enough for small gigs.

you can pre order the LB30 head from giggear for £399 if anyones interested

[quote name='JTUK' post='689469' date='Dec 20 2009, 02:44 AM']hmm not sure. I use them with an East pre and the sound is big and solid but I wouldn't say a vintage tone. It is a Jazz on steroids but I'd prefer a bit more character and less grunt. My Barts with an East pre get there better, IMV. I'd give them a call ( Kent Armstrong ) on their 01233 number and talk it through with Aaron...[/quote] thanks for the replys.After hearing how well my bass sounded last night at a gig im not sure if i need to change them now

[quote name='bobbytodd' post='688979' date='Dec 19 2009, 11:56 AM']guess what yet another failure of my mb115 same probs as last time the solder on the inductor coil broke third time this cab has failed.not good[/quote] Sorry to hear of all your problems.I had a look at the mb range when they first came out and was tempted to buy one until i found out where they were assembled.Not really giving marshall a good name in their bass department are they!At least they have their guitar amplifacation sorted.

Basically is this pickup going to give me more growl and volume than whats already on my squier cv 60's pbass?

cant see my local Pre Menstral Tension store getting any of the heads in to try.they could not even be bothered to get me a cab!their loss got one £200 cheaper.

just seen the RRP price of the 427 small block head £1939!!

[quote name='eude' post='686547' date='Dec 16 2009, 05:15 PM']Gave the website a good read, but there's always holes in that kind of info. I was actually asking them about how usable they think it will be compared to a small class D amp that is louder on paper. As you'll see already from the thread, some folks say it will be a lot louder than your average 30W, some folks say that's nonsense, I'm not sure what to believe so I just thought I'd ask for Ashdown's opinion is all. I also was wondering if they have a definite date for release and details of UK availability. Eude[/quote] they will probably tell you what they told me that its due instore feb 2010 and its usable for small gigs!

with the eq off, input on 10 o'clock,output on 10 o'clock and with that cab ,it should rattle windows!

[quote name='eude' post='686493' date='Dec 16 2009, 04:37 PM']Been about 4 days now, I guess they're probably inundated with questions about the new range from around the world. I don't mind waiting, however the longer I wait the more they're pushing me into the arms of a lovely new Orange Terror Bass Eude[/quote]guess theres not enough information on their website?

[quote name='Marky L' post='686113' date='Dec 16 2009, 10:12 AM']Oh! Nice touch, cheers for that. It'a always good to see retail outlets with more up to date info than the actual manufacturers site![/quote] That is on their website as a mini 15,its 14cm less in width than a 2x10 neo.what i meant was a compact neo 1x15 cab exactly the same width and depth as a 2x10 neo.that ones ok if you put it on top,but imo a 15 should be on the bottom.the mini 15 is made to go with the mini 4x8.Actually ive seen that cab advertised £100 cheaper

[quote name='eude' post='686438' date='Dec 16 2009, 03:54 PM']I emailed Ashdown with a few questions about the LB, but nothing back yet When I do hear back though, I'll post the info I'm surprised they don't put a valve front end with a Little Giant power section... Cheers, Eude[/quote] unusual them not getting back,depends if chris bates the head of sales is about i think.

said this before but i really think ashdowns uk made abm range is better sounding than the new models.
