[quote name='TraceAmp' timestamp='1417770121' post='2623797'] There are two power tubes (EL84) and a 12AX7 as a phase inverter (only). I asked Ashdown and they answered, that the preamp section is only SS. [/quote] One of the best solid state pre amps I've heard then

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1417741719' post='2623732'] Is that a port on the side? I'll be disappointed if it is. [/quote] Looks like it, was always having a port tho wasn't it? Isn't it meant to sound like a sealed cab but with the added pluses of being ported? I could be wrong of course

Why do they say full valve and what are the valves in there doing?

lee anderton, all the youtube videos he is capt lee. this is a shame tho have got my last few musical purchases from them all have been spot on! andy

if this cab gets good reviews i may have to make my first barefaced order next year andy

[quote name='abc' timestamp='1417703707' post='2623235'] I am wondering; Are Cog stock pedals all 'original' designs or based on(or clones of) something else? For example;Is the T65 one of many reinventions( improved and more elaborate as the case may be) of the oc2, divided octave or Pearl oc7? And how about the other pedals by Cog? I find them really quite interesting! Thanks! [/quote] as is said above the tarkin is based on a muff circuit but its been improved on, ie clean blend, the tk421 is a rat based circuit but again improved. the t65 is a wicked little pedal, i believe its based on the pearl pedal, but with the added filter it can do synthy or clean octave. andy

really capt lee? andy

looks tidy Two10 https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfp1/v/t1.0-9/s552x414/1610853_10152958483887704_1619115903184697399_n.jpg?oh=f26fceba79d3706990c3af734179e3ec&oe=55198AF3&__gda__=1426669858_b29d18ee9c87b865e773d69b9b9b1e20

well the bass arrived today! very impressed with it, nice finish, nice hardware etc. sounds very nice alot of tones on tap with the active eq, with my ctm 15 that i was playing a simple mid boost made the bass overdrive the amp really nicely so am quite impressed heres a few pics [URL=http://s245.photobucket.com/user/0175westwood29/media/IMG_0310.jpg.html][IMG]http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg72/0175westwood29/IMG_0310.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s245.photobucket.com/user/0175westwood29/media/IMG_0310.jpg.html][IMG]http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg72/0175westwood29/IMG_0310.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

i use fender cables, very happy with the sound and quality, i use the planet waves cables on my pedalboard tho. andy

yeh the 18v pre is pretty hefty power wise alot of boost on tap andy

[quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1417605838' post='2622107'] How's my old Speaker Cranker working out then? It's a great dirty boost. I had an impulse Black Friday purchase of a new TAFM. Just because I love my original so much I want to see how the newer ones sound, they have a switchable buffer inside and a few tweaks here and there! [/quote] Working out very well use it to boost on top of my Godzilla, root and Tarkin they then become mental!!

something about fuzz sits well in my current band, but i do like mixing fuzz with overdrive andy

[quote name='mikebass84' timestamp='1417551942' post='2621693'] Currently using a swollen pickle m2. Love Fuzz [/quote] love the pickle! its a crazy fuzz! my favs are changing all the time hence why i probs have like 5 fuzzes on my board! andy

[quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1417486760' post='2620957'] Cool! And it seems she's the bassist with Tarja Turunen (ex Nightwish)... [/quote] indeed looks like she is pretty busy. andy

Me neither

why would you supply a pedal a different sig than a instrument signal? are you thinking in terms of reamping? im not really sure what your thinking, are you trying to run a clean sound and a dirt channel at the same time? i use a bright onion blender to blend in crazy fuzz to my clean sound.

when you say impedance issue? if you want to go straight into a desk maybe get a di with a speaker emulator, alot out there now. andy

so just a little post to say that ive always loved fuzz! ever since i tried my first big muff! been through so many but now have a selection yes! a selection that i love! but got my new amp at the weekend an all valve ashdown CTM-100 and its just made them even more awesome! so made this little video to show ppl! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTnrmKPAHj4 headphones are needed! and yes not the ideal mic but im really happy with the sound! andy

just found this on youtube wicked cover and nice tone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8eTD2GBLX4&list=UUV8Hd5HsNMMCnLv3fc3o1NA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTnrmKPAHj4&feature=youtu.be just did this demo of my pedalboard, some say its all fuzz but to me they all sound different and react different to my playing so please check out the video and let me know what you think? andy

and heres a link showing my pedalboard through the amp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTnrmKPAHj4&feature=youtu.be andy

thanks guys, just on a side note its much lighter than i expected, i mean its not light but doesnt feel like a lump of lead. andy
