Yeah customs have their own exchange rate, conveniently priced to suit their pockets. They'll also charge VAT on the shipping cost which I think is a bit bogus seeing as the international part has nothing to do with them what so ever.

+1, I found my MM licenced Jazz neck brand new for £50

I normally leave the button in the out position, but I still don't know which way round the pre/post EQ is... Do you?

Dillinger Escape Plan - Horse Hunter (the outro is awesome)

There must only be 4 wires to change? Only an extra 2 over the standard wiring.

4 - bass, guitar, vocals, drums. No need for anything else

The Wizard Thumper is pretty good, v. high output

Man, I just love pie

Guitarist ain't called Jon is he? He mentioned him and a drummer lookin for a bassist

You're right, all shops should ban browsing FOREVER lmao. Maybe they should rename it "The Buy Something Or Get Out Cellar"

Wow, the reply from Orange was really helpful...

The Crush 35B runs at 8 ohms only.



[b]UPDATE: IS THIS GUY HIGH?[/b]

No it does not mute the speaker.
The Crush 35B is a practice amp and does not really have the power required for playing bass with live drums.
You need at least 200 watts for that.

You should be able to do that as long as its standard parallel wiring.

Especially true with my flatwounds that I'm always taking on and off when the mood takes me...[/quote]

I know what you mean, it annoys me no end.

What sort of switch have you put in? Pics will help

I would wire it like this:

In short - the amp kicks out 35w at 4ohms. The built in speaker is 4ohm. The unknown is if it automatically breaks the link to the internal speaker. If it doesnt, and you hook up a 4ohm extension cab to it, the amp will see 2ohms and become quite unhappy.

What are you trying to achieve by driving an extension cab? As really 35w of bass really isn't going to be too loud whatever speaker you use is it?[/quote]

Cheers dude.

A mate has a spare 8ohm driver knocking about which I was gona make up into a mini-cabinet, but by the sounds of it the internal speaker will get cut off so there's no point.

Extension cab (usually) = more volume.

Try a gig in the dark

Does anyone know the minimum impedance cabinet you can connect to the speaker out?

And does this cut power to the internal speaker?

Cheers

Stuck one in my ABM a few weeks ago. Awesome

[quote name='Finbar' post='277993' date='Sep 5 2008, 04:26 PM']It looks pretty ugly though. Its an amp, not a car.[/quote]

Yeah but it screams out "THIS IS AN ASHDOWN AMP" - free advertising

Thanks guys. Anyone know anything about the Orange amp??

No, I don't think you need them for piezo tweeters.

Cheers mate, should it be wired parallel or in series with the woofer?

1. I want to wire a piezo tweeter into my practice cab (two 10" woofers in parallel), can I just wire it over one of the speakers and the cab will have the same overall impedance?

AND

2. Does anyone know the minimum impedance cab you can connect to the speaker out on the Orange Crush 35B? Does this cut power to the internal speaker?

Cheers!
