  1. How very observant of you. It was after an earlier post suggested considering how a bass plays and feels as opposed to buying unsuitable guitars just because of the year. It'll be a 2015
  2. I have GAS for a 77 P bass so considering a relic'd Limelight build
  3. Same question as above, anything you'd be interested in trading for?
  4. Good on you! always nice to hear someone has new gear to mess around with. Nothing better!
  5. I am and I want the Tonehammer 500 and 2x TKS S112 cabs. I'm sick of carrying heavy valve gear and will be buying the afore mentioned in the new year. Take one or 2 cabs as required

    Jazz

    My USA 75 RI, seems to be made 1999 in the Corona factory but it's really quite heavy
  7. They answered me within a day and my amp is ancient. Prob beyond their help so I have to say they've been more than reasonable customer service wise. Plus they sent me replacement volume knobs free
  8. Guy from Ashdown has replied with some suggestions, I'm awaiting any tech recommendations from him in my area.(Glasgow) it's quite an age now, an original Evo, so I'm sure there are limits as to what he can do.
  9. Wow that would suit me perfectly but to raise a bag of sand this side of Xmas I'd need to pimp out the Mrs and I doubt she would have the required enthusiasm...GLWTS mate
  10. Hi Steve, I've played bass for years but have never been too into the technical side of amps etc just knew what I liked so this site has been fantastic. Really friendly and some extremely knowledgable members. If you like your bass then it may be ideal. I've spent a good few quid on basses, mainly USA Fenders, one 60's Gibson but right now I can't put down my battered 1994 made in Japan Fender Jazz so it may be finding just what you like over reputation. All the best mate!
  11. Thank you very much is all I can say. FINALLY 100% decided. It's 2xS112 and a TH500 for me in the new year. That is that.
  12. Some easy Stone Roses, She Bangs the Drums, Waterfall. That was my whole 1990 12 year old boy start. Mani got me into bass in a big way and now I always end up playing She Caught the Katy and other Duck Dunn stuff. Always relax playing my Jazz after a rubbish day at work just trying new lines
  13. I will keep you posted as seems to happen to a few Ashdown amps. Thanks for all the input again quality advice much appreciated!
  14. Wow, that is great. I'll give it a try thank you
  15. I will do. It's as heavy as a truck so I may fix it and sell it on for a few quid in the next rig pot. May have more fundraising luck selling a Bassman on though
  16. Anyone know of recommended amp techs in the Glasgow area? Bassmans for servicing and an Ashdown ABM 500 that wants to explode by the sound of it?!
  17. Every time the switch is flicked. I'm hopeless with all the amp innards i'd probably do more harm than good. I just looked for any obvious damage so i will get it to a local tech.
  18. I tried it again today and the Mrs nearly had a trouser accident outside the house at the bottom of the garden! I'll not be switching it on again until I get it looked at, if at all. I will try Ashdown tomorrow and post the results on here.
  19. Good point Stevie. I'm intending on travelling about a bit in the new year to test different speakers but I definitely want the TH500
  20. Yeah that's it, power off is the only way to stop it and it's so loud and disturbing I was tempted to switch it off with a big stick in case it fried me! Not good news. I always thought it sounded quite good too. I'll try calling them but it's a fair age now. I'm currently using my old Bassmans and Ampeg cabs so it's not a disaster for up coming weddings etc. I'll buy a new lighter rig in the new year. Thanks for the info!
  21. I'm after the very same amp and I fancy a pair of TKS S112 cabs
  22. Any ideas please? my ABM 500w 410 combo just started making a terrible, big, bad & constant noise! Inside everything looks ok, no scorch marks or obvious fuse blows or pre-amp valve explosions?
  23. Sorry mate I haven't tried it. I asked the same re Audio Kitchen gear but no one seems to have tried that out
  24. Anyone tried the Audio Kitchen Base Chopper?
